Until 1997, the section of SR-144 between State Route 77 and U.S. Highway 431, was designated as State Route 62. State Route 62 is now assigned to a short route in Marshall County. Also, the section of SR-144 between State Route 77 and Ragland was signed as County Road 26 until SR-144 was extended eastward.
