-===Problem 1: No evidence of fatalities===
+===Problem 1: No evidence of 16 fatalities===
 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 possibility has been raised that records were not as accurate in 1929, and that these fatalities were simply not recorded.  However, earlier deaths on other bridges were recorded, and it is unlikely that the families of 16 men would allow their memory to be forgotten.
+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]].
