The historic towns of Coalmont, Tulameen and Hedley are located in a nearby radius of Princeton and can be explored for evidence of their coal and gold mining pasts.

Princeton was first known by the name of Vermilion Forks, after the red, yellow and orange ochre gathered by the natives for face painting. The area was also referred to as Allison Flats, after the first white settler to the area, John Fall Allison. In 1860 the name was changed to Princeton in honour of Prince Edward the Prince of Wales who visited Eastern Canada in that year.

In 1885 gold was discovered at Granite Creek and by 1897 Granite City was considered the third largest city in BC. What remains of the former town site can be discovered I km east of Coalmont on the south shore of the Tulameen River.

In the early 1900s Coalmont and the neighbouring town of Tulameen were thriving mining communities with coal being mined for the locomotives & steamships of the CPR. Today the coal claims are again being developed in a small way, and people still find small deposits of gold in the area.
