Compared to many other USA china companies, Crooksville has a short history.  Crooksville China Co. was founded in  Crooksville, OH, in 1902.   They manufactured semi-porcelain dinnerware & kitchenware. The company began having financial difficulties in the late 1950's, due to competition from lower priced Japanese imports and plastic dinnerware manufacturers.  They went out of business in 1959.
