History
Bridgetown was settled c. 1820, and named after Bridgeton, New Jersey, the native home of a share of the first settlers.
Bridgetown was home to the Western Hills Airport (Also called "Frank Airport" and "Cheviot Airport") and was the first airport in western Hamilton County, Ohio. Airport operations began in 1929, shutdown during World War II, then reopened after the end of the war, slowly declining until the corporation ceased services in 1949 as aircraft outgrew the facilities.
