yes I have those burials for Blumingburg cemetery. It just says "McCool" on the death cer. But it also says "Wilson and Thompson, Kosciusko, Miss." Wonder if there any records for this funeral home in existence??

Winter's Funeral Home handles most black burials in Kosciusko. Possibly they may have the records from Wilson and Thompson.
