The bridge was listed as a Mississippi Landmark on August 4, 1984,[1] and added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 16, 1988.[2] HistoryThe bridge was originally built as the main route across the Chunky River southwest of Meridian. Documents in the Lauderdale County Archives reveal the contract to construct a bridge in this location was written in 1847, and estimates place the bridge's construction date around 1850.[3] A new bridge replaced the old one in 1901,[4] built by the Virginia Bridge and Iron Company.[5] LegendsAccording to legend, a member of the Dalton Gang named "Stuckey" owned a nearby inn where he would rob and murder his guests and bury his victims bodies on the riverbank. The legend says that after murdering twenty people, Stuckey was finally caught and hanged from the newly constructed bridge located on the site of his murders. Rumours of Stuckey haunting the bridge arose as well as claimed sightings of an old man carrying a lantern along the river's edge, loud splashes that supposedly represent Stuckey's body hitting the water after his noose was cut, and visions of his lifeless corpse hanging from the bridge.[3][6][7] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://mdah.state.ms.us/hpres/MSLandmarks.pdf |title=Mississippi Landmarks |date=May 2008 |publisher=Mississippi Department of Archives and History |accessdate=July 20, 2009 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101009033103/http://mdah.state.ms.us/hpres/MSLandmarks.pdf |archivedate=October 9, 2010 |df= }} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{Mississippi-NRHP-stub}}{{Mississippi-bridge-struct-stub}}2. ^1 {{NRISref|2009a}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.roadsites.org/losthwy/ms_stuckey.html|title=Abandoned Stuckey's Bridge Road - Mississippi|author=Adam Froehlig|year=2000|publisher=The Lost Highway|accessdate=2009-07-20}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=30cc8714-f5ff-40e3-96bd-b28327e9ada3 |title=Stuckey's Bridge|accessdate=2009-07-20}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://bridgehunter.com/ms/lauderdale/stuckeys/|title=Historic Bridges of the U.S. – Stuckey's Bridge|accessdate=2009-07-20}} 6. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.meridianstar.com/archivesearch/local_story_301020754.html|title=The hanging man at Stuckey’s Bridge|author=Jennifer Jacob|date=October 28, 2007|publisher=The Meridian Star|accessdate=July 20, 2009}} 7. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yPL7wPyPEjcC&pg=PA78|title=Shadows and cypress|author=Alan Brown|year=2000|accessdate=2009-07-20 | isbn=978-1-57806-271-3 | publisher=Univ.
