Created on land that was once part of the Creek Nation, Payne was one of the first counties established
in Oklahoma Territory by the Organic Act in May 1890. It was first designated as the Sixth County, but was later
named to honor Boomer leader David L. Payne. The county was part of the territory settled during the Land Run of
1889. Payne County's topography of rolling plains lies mostly within the Sandstone Hills physiographic region,
and the western part of the county lies within the Red Bed Plains. The Twin Mounds, limestone-topped hills lying
east of Ingalls, is the most noticeable feature. The Cimarron River is the primary waterway, draining most of the
county via its own smaller tributaries and Stillwater Creek and its tributaries
Mulhall School in 1905.
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.
