About Princeton, Massachusetts
Princeton is a town of 3,495 people in Worcester County, and the entrance to Mount Wachusett lies within its borders. Europeans settled here in 1743, when the land still belonged to Rutland. The town was incorporated in 1759 and named for the Rev. Thomas Prince, pastor of Boston's Old South Church and a historian of New England. Princeton later grew twice, adding part of Hubbardston in 1810 and part of Westminster in 1870.
Prince's daughter Sarah married Moses Gill, a Boston merchant, and the couple inherited her father's land here, one of the largest tracts in town. Gill gave the ground for Princeton's first center, about half a mile from the present one. He was the state's acting governor from 1799 until his death in 1800. Ward Nicholas Boylston, nephew of Gill's second wife, inherited the estate and moved to Princeton in 1804. He helped pay for the town center that stands today, and his will left the town $1000 for its church and minister and for needy widows and orphans.
- Redemption Rock, 1676During King Philip's War, Native Americans brought their captive Mary Rowlandson to a granite ledge off what is now Route 140, and her release to the colonists was agreed on top of it. Her written account of the captivity became famous, and a state marker at the rock calls it a classic of colonial literature.
- Ski trails since 1934Mount Wachusett got its first ski trails in 1934 and 1937, cut by crews of the Civilian Conservation Corps. During World War II, soldiers of the 10th Mountain Division trained on the mountain, and a plaque at the summit honors them. Below the summit ledges grows a 220-acre band of old-growth forest, with trees 150 to 370 years old.
- Painter of the WashingtonsBorn in Princeton in 1761, Edward Savage grew up to work as a portrait artist and engraver. His best-known work is The Washington Family, a large painting of George and Martha Washington. The canvas later passed from Andrew Mellon to the National Gallery of Art as his gift. Savage came back to Princeton and died here in 1817.
- The legend of Lucy KeyesPrinceton's oldest legend tells of four-year-old Lucy Keyes, who followed her sisters to fetch water from Wachusett Lake and vanished. Her mother, Martha, searched and called for her day and night, but Lucy never came home. Some say both still haunt the mountain, and the story became the 2006 film The Legend of Lucy Keyes.
