Pontotoc County

Thank you to Mollie Stehno for the 1935, 1936 and 1937 Ada
Evening
News Obituary records.
I had my own success story from this group of records. I had
just found
that an ancestor was buried in Pontotoc County but I didn't
know where
or any other information other than it was around 1936 or 37.
Guess what? I found her in these records!!! Thank you Mollie!
