This olde kiltie's ancestry includes a very long and strong line of Brett/Britt going back to Thomas Brett born about 1535 in St. Clements, Hastings, Sussex, England. The family moved to Hastings, Kent, Sussex, England around 1600 then came to the Colonies before 1640 where the family name went from Brett to Britt.
I gotta believe that this line goes back to France just from their name.
Which, of course has those tartans on my wish list....
Any excuse for a kilt....
