No doubt, an interesting party could find the archivist to Canton, Ohio by inquiring at the Canton Library; and ask for the location of the Sprankle Dam.
The Canton City Council brought up the subject of the dam several times in 1881.
Wonder what else might be found in and around that swimming hole??
