Texas death index listed R. Tate Fulfer as dying on Dec. 26, 1948 and his Death cert. list dying on January 26, 1948 and buried on January 27, 1949 (this is over a year later) Also the death certificate was rec'd by local Registrar on January 20, 1949 before he was buried. ??? Apparently Death Cerificate is incorrect since his obit was date Dec 31, 1948.
