Cotton County, Oklahoma
A Part of the
Genealogy Trails Group

Volunteers Dedicated to Free Genealogy

Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data and placing it online for the free use of all researchers.

This Cotton County Site is Available for Adoption!

WANT TO HELP?



We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this project be successful. If you are interested in joining our group, view our
Volunteer Page for further information and then contact Kim .

If you are interested in adding your families' information this website, email us. We'll be happy to help your families' obituaries, news items and other historical data find a home here at Oklahoma Genealogy Trails, where it will remain free for all to view.

WE REGRET THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO DO PERSONAL RESEARCH FOR YOU. ALL DATA IS ADDED TO THE SITE AS WE COME ACROSS IT, SO IF IT IS NOT HERE, WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO IT.

If you would like to be kept informed of our state and county website updates, subscribe to any of our mailing lists




Cotton County Courthouse

The topography is typical of a plains environment, with a mixture of grasses prevalent. The western edge of the Cross Timbers invades the county's eastern portion. The creeks and streams, including Cache Creek, drain to the southeast into the Red River. Cotton County has 641.94 square miles of land and water.  The federal government platted five townsites for the Big Pasture opening, Randlett, Eschiti, Ahpeatone, Quanah, and Isadore, with the latter two in present Tillman County. Randlett is the only original town still incorporated.
Other incorporated Cotton County towns are Devol, Temple, and Walters.
