    I'm from Tishomingo, and most people say it something like tish-uh-meen-go... But there is some slight variation in the vowels even for people raised here.

      I’ve got family from there and they’ve always called it Tish

      @@wewemcrhyne very true... I'm technically from a community that goes by Mingo, and we call the town Tish (and of course the county is Tishomingo also)... My family always jokes that the place in between should be called 'o'
