Census Images for Clarence Custer "Cub" Britton (1908-1987)

Cub was born 14 Apr 1908 near Viola in Williams Township, Stone County, Missouri to William Isaac "Ike" Britton and Elizabeth Aletha "Lizzie" Lightle. After a cyclone destroyed their cabin, they rebuilt it before moving to Washington. They then had to leave there on account of Lizzie's health. The doctor thought she had TB, and said that if they did not get her to a high, dry climate she would not live long. They then settled in Colorado. Cub married Ellen Lovicy Waters 16 Apr 1930 in Kim, Las Animas County, Colorado.
