Surviving are ... Oscar of Washington, D. C.,
Any idea if this Oscar Britt was married to Mabel Ethel Iliff and if he
was born in 1886 and died in 1956? She was married to Oscar L. Britt
and, I believe, lived in D. C. for a time. She was my wife's great aunt.
I've never had any information about his family, but I recall hearing
stories about "Aunt Mabel's" visits to Indiana from time to time.
