Hello,
I am Harry Brownslow Brittan, Jr., born in Chicago,
Illinois, December 15, 1938. My father was Harry
Brownslow Brittan, Sr., born in Mendota, Illinois,
June 13, 1901, and died in Galveston, Texas, May
31, 1951. He is buried in Evergreen Cemetery in
Paris, Texas.
My Mother, Emma Louise Clark Brittan, was born in
Palo Pinto, February 7, 1909,and died in Arlington,
Texas, December 18, 1995. She is also buried in
Paris, Texas. She was the youngest daughter of
Joseph Clark and Edith Holden. Her father was a
lightning rod salesman and deputy sheriff in Young
County and abandoned his wife and three daughters
sometime around 1920. Her mother, Edith, was the
daughter of Dr. John Holden, the first licensed
dentist in Texas (according to folklore) and was
the first women elected as a school superintendent
in Palo Pinto County. My Mother, and her two
sisters, Marinette (Sissy) and Inez (Bill), lived
in Mineral Wells for many years before going off to
seek their fortunes in Dallas, Philadelphia, and
Chicago.
I grew up with many stories about Palo Pinto
County, the town, the surrounding area, and love
that part of Texas.
Thanks for the website. Keep doing GREAT
THINGS!
Harry Brittan

I was born in Palo Pinto
County on March 22, 1984. I lived in Mineral Wells
for the first six years of my life, and after
finally landing in Georgia, I am now a freshman at
Georgia Southern Un. Texas will always be my home
and I can't wait to move back. Almost all of my
family still lives in the county, and my
grandmother, Alice Gail Basham Orr, currently runs
the Palo Pinto Cafe. I would love more information
on the McCoy family and Basham family. The McCoys
settled in Fortune Bend. Thanks!
