Death Certificate for Louis Cass Britton, 1932

Shared by Ellen Britton

Pertinent information:

Louis C Britton, white widower

Born - 15 May 1851 in Missouri

Died - 6 Aug 1932 in Mayes County, Oklahoma at 7:30 pm, at the age of 81

Informant - Sherman Lynes (Louis' son-in-law), of Chateau, Oklahoma

Parents (Riley Britton  and Julia Ann Strong) not known by informant

Cause of death - Lobar Pneumonia
Doctor attended him from 28 Jul -7 Aug 1932 (last saw him alive 3 Aug)

Burial - 7 Aug 1932 in the Bethany Cemetery

I think that his headstone is actually in the Alberty Cemetery, Sportsmen Acres, Mayes County, Oklahoma, as per the headstone photo on findagrave ➚ (descendant walked through the cemetery, found his headstone and took a picture, then send it to my sister, Peggy). It is possible that Bethany is the name of an old church beside the cemetery, perhaps, or that the name of the cemetery has changed since the creation of this death certificate.
