Route 66 in Oklahoma: a Historic Context Review
Route 66 in Oklahoma: A Historic Context Review A Perspective on Topics and Sources for Archives Collections and Oral History Studies This document suggests topics and ideas for additional research along Oklahoma’s portion of Route 66. Primarily, the review is intended to assist researchers collecting information about Route 66 by collecting oral histories and organizing research projects. This outline may also be used to encourage the preservation of archival materials and artifacts. The topical headings are random in order. I. Waterways crossing or near Route 66 A. The waterways that crossed or came very near the roadway including bridges, ferries, low water crossing, and other roadway features that are related to waterways. Waterways were the most important landmark for early native travelers and for early explorers. The same waterways continue to be important for the obstacles for the original and later roadways. 1. Neosho/Grand River 2. Grand River 3. Verdigris River 4. Arkansas River 5. Deep Fork River (Canadian River) 6. North Canadian River (Now the Oklahoma River as of 2006) 7. South Canadian River (Sometimes just called the Canadian River) 8. Red River 9. Deep Fork Creek in Oklahoma City 10.

Oklahoma Territory 1889-1907
THE DIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE SOME ASPECTS OF LIFE IN THE "LAND OP THE PAIR GOD"; OKLAHOMA TERRITORY, 1889=1907 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OP PHILOSOPHY BY BOBBY HAROLD JOHNSON Norman, Oklahoma 1967 SOME ASPECTS OP LIFE IN THE "LAND OF THE FAIR GOD"; OKLAHOMA TERRITORY, 1889-1907 APPROVED BY DISSERTATION COMMITT If Jehovah delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it unto us; a land which floweth with milk and honey. Numbers li^sS I am boundfor the promised land, I am boundfor the promised land; 0 who will come and go with me? 1 am bound for the promised land. Samuel Stennett, old gospel song Our lot is cast in a goodly land and there is no land fairer than the Land of the Pair God. Milton W, Reynolds, early Oklahoma pioneer ill PREFACE In December, 1892, the editor of the Oklahoma School Herald urged fellow Oklahomans to keep accurate records for the benefit of posterity* "There is a time coming, if the facts can be preserved," he noted, "when the pen of genius and eloquence will take hold of the various incidents con nected with the settlement of what will then be the magnifi» cent state of Oklahoma and weave them into a story that will verify the proverb that truth is more wonderful than fic tion." While making no claim to genius or eloquence, I have attempted to fulfill the editor's dream by treating the Anglo-American settlement of Oklahoma Territory from 1889 to statehood in 1907» with emphasis upon social and cultural developments* It has been my purpose not only to describe everyday life but to show the role of churches, schools, and newspapers, as well as the rise of the medical and legal professions* My treatment of these salient aspects does not profess to tell the complete story of life in Oklahoma. -

At the Oklahoma History Center Oklahoma Century Chest Exhibit To
Vol. 44, No. 8 Published monthly by the Oklahoma Historical Society, serving since 1893 August 2013 “History through Music” at the Oklahoma History Center On Thursday, August 29, the Oklahoma History Center will host Dr. Harold Al- dridge and Dorothy Ellis, aka “Miss Blues,” for an educational and entertaining performance on the development of Blues music. This edition of the Oklahoma Historical Society’s “History through Music” program will examine the develop- ment and appreciation of the Blues music genre from its roots in nineteenth century slavery to its popularity in the twentieth century. Doors will open at 6 p.m. and the program will start at 7 p.m. Oklahoma Historical Society members can RSVP and receive free seats. Nonmembers interested in attending must pur- chase an OHS family membership at half price, $25, or any of our other membership levels at regular price, and then will be able to RSVP for up to two seats.

During the presentation both musicians will explain the roles that secular and gospel music had in these communities. Born and raised in the all-black town of Taft, Oklahoma, Dr. Harold Aldridge learned to play the guitar from the town’s older musi- cians. He will perform and give the history of the differing styles of Blues, including how regional sounds emerged. -

Unfortunately, preservation programs are out of the reach of many institutions because of funding, training, and resource issues. Over the past decade, the Oklahoma Department of Libraries, the Oklahoma Historical Records Advisory Board, and the Oklahoma Museums Association have worked together to develop programs and services that help organizations address preservation planning, environmental control and proper storage, care and handling of materials, disaster planning, conservation reformatting, and security. In addition to preservation issues, the organizations have also provided programs on building organizational capacity, strengthening boards, and connecting with the community. Evaluation reports on these activities indicate a high level of satisfaction with the programs and services; however, there continues to be an unmet need for “one-on-one” interaction and expanded delivery methods, i.e., distance learning. Key Recommendations for Further Consideration: Below is a summary of key recommendations related to training and programming. The Work Group should review each recommendation, respond to the questions, contribute additional information, and identify action steps to move the recommendation forward. -
