History
New Bridge was founded on the banks of Eagle Creek near an important bridge built across the stream in pioneer times.[3] Joseph Gale was the first postmaster of New Bridge post office, which ran from 1878 until 1967.[3] The town was originally in Union County until 1901, when the boundaries were changed to eliminate the panhandle in which New Bridge was located.[3] New Bridge was platted in 1908, "only after irreversible decline had set in".[4] New Bridge sold agricultural products from the Eagle Valley to miners near Sparta.[4] It had a fruit and vegetable cannery, a box factory, and a packing shed for apples.[4] The decline of New Bridge was due in part to nearby Richland being platted in 1897.[4]
