Hey all!

I'm looking for old photos of the Britton area. I have old family ties to the town stretching back to Territory days. Are there any go-to archives or people for this? Would OKC have absorbed any documents or photos for this?

Following. Swalell, if you are out and about, go by Shorty's Caboy Hattery (spelled correctly). He grew up about 1/2 a mile north of Britton, and he may be a good source. My grandparents lived down the street from him, and I remember the TG&Y in Britton, and when the theater when it was open (mid-seventies).

Thanks! Is the Hattery in Britton?

There is a group on Facebook I remember looking through back when I was on there. It had a bunch of pictures and stories, etc.
