EARLY POST OFFICES OF OKLAHOMA
Grant Foreman

The early post offices of the United States are to be found in more than a score of huge volumes in the Post Office Department
at Washigton where they were entered according to states in the approximate order in which they were created. In most of the
states of the Union it was a comparatively easy matter to group the post offices according to the counties within which they
were located. But not so with Oklahoma before Statehood. A
number of the early Oklahoma post offices appear on the Post Office Department records as being in Arkansas because Indian
Territory was then part of Arkansas Territory. After the somewhat indifinite division of the country among the Indian tribes,
for want of county limits the Department located
the post offices with reference to the tribal boundaries.
As the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations divided their countries into counties, post offices were located with reference to these
county lines in lieu of tribal boundaries. There were many other opportunities for confusion; the records of post offices
located in Greer County, Texas, were arbitrarily changed to show them in Greer County, Oklahoma, before the sovereignty of
that country was determined. For many years it is doubtful if any one
understood the geography and divisions of Indian Territory and it is surprising that the clerks in the Post Office Department
were able to locate the post offices as well as they did. At best the records are confusing and the task of making a correct
transcript of them to show the name, location and beginning of each post office together with the first postmaster has been
no slight undertaking. Errors will probably be discovered; the compiler has undertaken to correct some of the more obvious
ones of which he found many, such as the location of Fort Sill in the Choctaw Nation; but while having some essential knowledge
of early Oklahoma, he has thought it wise not to vary too much from the original, even though he does not correct the location
of Pryor's Creek in the Choctaw Nation which he does not pretend to understand.
The headings employed are from the original records; rearrangement was used to place the lists in convenient form

for reference without taking too much liberty with the records and their recitals.
The compiler wishes to acknowledge the courtesy of the officials of the Post Office Department in giving him access to the
records and an opportunity for a copyist to transcribe them.
