We have not been able to find any historic documents or evidence supporting the statement that 16 men died during the construction of the Louisville Municipal Bridge. | We have not been able to find any historic documents or evidence supporting the statement that 16 men died during the construction of the Louisville Municipal Bridge. | ||
The | Based on research done by [[Searching for Vindication]], it appears that there were 2 fatalities in the construction of the bridge: | ||
*On Wednesday, June 19, 1929, Richard Pilton died after being hit in the temple with an iron crank. He did not drown. | |||
*On September 10, 1929. Lloyd McEwen lost his footing and fell, landing on a barge below the bridge. He did not drown, but rather, died from the injuries caused from his fall. | |||
The research documented on the [[Searching for Vindication]] website refutes any claim that the records in 1929 were inaccurate, and that the 16 fatalities were simply not recorded. | |||
We would highly recommend those interested in this issue to read the research performed by [[Searching for Vindication]]. | |||
