The legend of Sarah Jane

In certain parts of USA there are legends associated with rivers and bridges, but especially "Crybaby Bridges". These bridges are called Crybaby Bridges are given to small spooky looking bridges, haunted by the eerie sounds like babies crying. There are beliefs that these bridges are haunted. 

In Kentucky is Sleepy Hollow Road, there is a CryBaby Bridge where ghostly sounds of a crying baby is heard, and this has been legendary for many years since before the modern steel bridge was made. There was once before an old fashioned small bridge, where a number of babies were thrown into the river by desperate mothers who couldn't afford to look after them. 

In Texas there are several CryBaby Bridges with tragic stories connected to them. One involves a baby drowning, another about both a mother and child killed on the bridge during a car accident, and the traces of a ghost baby's handprints seen on a car window. But most famous of all is the legend of Sarah Jane.

In Port Neches, Texas, is a sad story of a baby called Sarah Jane. Both Sarah Jane and her mother were murdered by a dangerous man. It's said Sarah Jane was thrown into the river and her cries have been heard for many years afterwards. People who heard the baby's cries called out to Sarah Jane. 

I found many different versions of the Sarah Jane legend. Another version goes back to the time during the American Civil War, and a young mother named Sarah Jane was hiding her baby from enemy soldiers. She put her baby underneath a bridge so the passing soldiers wouldn't find either of them. The river changed later in the day and carried the baby off. The distraught mother went searching for her baby and wasn't able to. Distraught and filled with despair, the mother soon took her own life, hanging herself from a noose under the same bridge. Long afterwards, the cries of the baby was heard by the bridge.
