2010 Map of Princeton West

About this map

The Fox River meanders through the landscape near Princeton, where its waters were historically diverted through the Mill Race and Canal St areas. This 2010 survey shows the intricate water network where the Mecan River joins the Fox, flowing toward the expansive Puckaway Lake in the south. The settlement of Mecan and the Saint Johns Cemetery provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking family roots in Green Lake County. The map details a transition from the structured grid of the city to the irregular shorelines of White Lake and Haystack Point, reflecting the region's long-standing reliance on its river systems for transport and industry. The presence of numerous county highways, including County Hwy-J and County Hwy-C, illustrates the modern road network overlying the historic water-based geography of the Fox River Valley.
