The community was named after Prince William of Orange in the early 18th century. Princeton was the site of the Battle of Princeton on January 3, 1777, during the American Revolutionary War, in which General George Washington's forces defeated British troops. From June 30 to November 4, 1783, Princeton served as the capital of the United States, with the Continental Congress meeting at Nassau Hall.
