Historical Ada

FROM BLUFFTON ICON - It's possible your grandparents or even great-grandparents worked here.

When this photo was taken, the Triplett Corp. was Bluffton's largest employer. Here are two photos of the plant located along Harmon Road, which is today owned by Diamond Manufacturing.

Several sections, including the front office no long exists.

Here's the Ada High School baseball team from the 1971 season. Members of the team are listed in the photograph.

If you reverse "47" you end up with "74," which is year of this week's historic Ada photo. 

It's the 1974 Ada High School class as seniors, with the photo taken from the school yearbook.
