Names I can remember.

Ross Wildman was president of the First National Bank of Britton, Okla.  Never borrowed a dime from him but he was my first banker. The bank was across the street from the Long Bell Lumber Co. Dr. Johnson was married to Jim McLemore's older sister.  When they moved to Portland,Ore he sold his practice to Marcus Cox MD who became the doctor that both of my parents used for the rest of their lives.  Dr. Cox's first office was on Main Street (Britton Rd.) next door to the Britton Theater. Can't remember her last name, but she owned Ethel's Cafe on Main Street next to McLemore's Drug.  My sister and I had breakfast there for three or four mornings the only time I can remember my mother traveling with my dad.  Just for the heck of it the next store front was a bakery, the next shop was a Western Auto Store and the corner housed a Sinclair Service Station.

Across the street and on the corner was Campbell's Drug.  I went to High School with Bob Campbell.  Behind Campbell's Drug was the post office.  Next to Campbell's Drug to the east was a dry goods store, another cafe, the Ritz Theater, a T.G.& Y. store, and finally a plumbing shop before you crossed the street to the bank..

Paul Anderson lived in a corner house on Britton Rd, that was eventually sold to Joe Jones.(Sani-Sheen).  His son Harold Anderson went to high school with me. The Carpenter Twins, Barbara and ? lived with their mother and grandfather on the same side of Britton Rd and across the street.

Doris Puckett (my sister's best friend for while) lived down the street from the grade school. The only person I can remember from grade school is G.W. English(big ears!) I can only guess, but he must have moved away before we went to Jr. High along with Tommy Glidwell.

Jerry Duncan, Ted Duncan, and Walter Bowers, (beat me up once),  lived across the street from John Marshall. By the time I started the eighth grade no one ever messed with me again  (could be because I bailed hay all summer long for my Uncle). One of the few Friday Night adventures during the winter was to win a fight in the parking lot, then go inside Split-T to celebrate. Can't remember a Friday Night when we didn't celebrate. Johnnie ? was a cook at Split-T before he started his own burger stands  The first was on Britton Rd.
