'''This is a clear case of Jack Vissing getting the Big Four bridge confused with the Municipal Bridge.'''  If Jack's father was 13 in 1929, then it is obvious that his grandmother could not have been a young girl at the same time.  However, she would have been a young girl in 1895, when the Big Four bridge has 3 different fatal accidents as noted above.  Also, the 16 men that died in the construction of the caissons (on two separate occasions) would appear to be very close the description of the accident that she saw.
