Thank you for any help. Cathy

I did a google search- Typed in Allegheny River Bridge at Emlenton, Pennsylvania... This is what I got: Emlenton Bridge The Emlention Bridge spanned the Allegheny River at this location from 1883 to 1987. Originally constructed of wrought iron, it consisted of two double-inter-section pratt trusses, built by the wrought iron bridge company for the Emlenton Bridge Company, in 1898 it became the first free bridge in Venango County to cross the Allegheny. A side note: The bridge carrying PA Route 38 over the Allegheny lasted about 104 years before being destroyed. Hope this helps...
