CORINTH RESEARCH BIBLIOGRAPHY

Alcorn County Historical Association.  THE HISTORY OF ALCORN COUNTY
MISSISSIPPI. Dallas, Texas:  National ShareGraphics, Inc.  1983.

  646-Page Volume with good local and family history articles.
  Unfortunately, the publisher who arranged to publish many county
  histories in the Southeast, failed to properly make many of the
  corrections noted by the local editors. Illustrated with maps, drawings
  and photographs. Indexed.  The work abounds with references to ancestors
  who served in the Civil War or had some experience as non-combatants.

Cochran, Fan Alexander.  HISTORY OF OLD TISHOMINGO COUNTY MISSISSIPPI
TERRITORY. Oklahoma City, OK:  Barnhart Printing Co.  1st Printing 1969,
2nd Printing 1971, 3rd Printing 1972.

  Information abstracted from a 1903 Corinth, Mississippi, newspaper,
  special edition by Samuel M. Nabors.  There are several other reprints
  from the original newspaper. Cochran's book is the only one indexed.
  Pages 177 - 217 provide a list of soldiers who served from Old Tishomingo
  County, Miss., or moved into the area.  The original 1903 list is not
  complete as soldier's names and other information is sometime suspect.
  All in all, a good place to begin.
