Dorothy, I don't have info on any Britt men except ones born in the 1800's. Sorry. Have you tried to find the Death Cert of Charles Britt? I don't know anything about the Meltons. But again you could try the Death Cert if you knew the date and place of death. The Certs are held in the county of death not where they lived. I found that out why looking for the son of one of my Britts and instead found the Death Cert of his father who is the one I really wanted.
