KOSCIUSKO —
I'm looking for descendants of William Hart "Wild Bill" Tabor and his second wife Cassandra Elizabeth "Betty" Drane. Both were buried at the Drane Family Cemetery, Bankston, Choctaw Co., Mississippi. They had a son, William Jefferson Tabor, Sr. who died in 1952 and was buried at the Kosciusko City Cemetery, Kosciusko, Attala Co., Mississippi.
Wild Bill's first wife was Belle Maltby and they are my great-great-grandparents. Please contact me.

Take pause and pray on Square Sunday
