In 1860 Queen Victoria sent her son Albert Edward the Prince of Wales and future King of Great Britain to Canada on a goodwill tour. Local legend has it Princeton was renamed from Vermilion Forks in his honour. Some stories claim the Prince was scheduled to come to our humble little community but never made it and to this day Princeton has never had its Royal visit.
We are asking the people of Princeton if we should send an official invitation to Prince Harry and his family to settle in our fare town named in his great, great, great grandfather’s honour.
