Hi Redgie,
Redgie, this is all the Bishop's that is listed in Darwin Cemetery, done by
Mrs. Kay Black during in 1986. If they died before 1986, then it will be
unmarked graves.
In Pushmataha County Cemetery Book:
BISHOP, George W., 25 Nov. 1893---26 Nov. 1974.
BISHOP, Henry A., 6 Feb. 1912---19 Jan. 1980 (Double stone with Thelma I.)
BISHOP, J. M. C., 5 June _?--27 May 1928
BISHOP, Sarah E., 31 March 1889---13 Aug. 1970
BISHOP, Thelma I., 12 Dec. 1913---no death date (double stone with Henry A.,
Wed 14 Sept. 1931).
BISHOP, William H., 1 Feb. 1888---19 April 1961

I am wonder if maybe this J. M. C. Bishop could be your Mae Tyndall as in
"M" in middle name??? There were no birthyear in J. M. C. Bishop. Maybe
couldn't read it or something, but it was blank.
This is all Bishop's that is listed in Darwin Cemetery.
But funeral records show the following burials for which there are no
gravestones in Darwin Cemetery:
BISHOP, Baby boy, B & D, 22 March 1939
BISHOP, Cecil, 16 Dec. 1916---14 Feb. 1937
Also in Darwin Cemetery, this is all the Woods's:
WOODS, Eula B., 26 April 1897---18 Oct. 1966
WOODS, John H., 5 July 1881---16 Feb. 1962

Good luck on your search.
Teresa Young
