George H. BRITTON


December 11, 1890 - October 21, AD 1918

My Great Uncle, George H. Britton was killed in France, Argonne Forest during WWI. He was buried in France, and a memorial marker was erected in the Leonardson Cemetery, Jefferson Twp., Hillsdale Co., Michigan at the family plot. George was killed exactly three weeks before the Armistice of Nov. 11, 1918 brought the war to an end.
