     History
    The bridge across the Tuscarawas River at this site was destroyed by the 1913 flood. A temporary swing bridge forced Crystal Springs citizens to cross the river at great risk. In 1914 this bridge was erected. The wooden floor was replaced by iron grid in the 1940’s. In 1995, when the Stark County Commissioners vacated this bridge the Jackson Township historical Society intervened to save it. As a result, the Jackson Township Trustees assumed responsibility for this bridge. In 1996 this bridge and road easement were formally dedicated as the Crystal Bridge Park.
