| NEW PARIS, OHIO was platted in 1817 & became an incorporated village in 1832. In the early years, rich limestone deposits made stone mining & lime manufacturing major industries. Reminders of those days are still evident around our lakes.
Senior citizens, native to the area, like to recall the good times at Cedar Springs (now Natural Springs Resort), an early "health spa", whose waters were famous for their curative properties. Not only did settlers both rich & poor from near & far drink from the mineral springs, but so did the Pottawatomie, Miami & Wyandot Indians before them. The springs form one of the clearest lakes in all of western Ohio & eastern Indiana.... |
