Delaware County, OK


Located in northeastern Oklahoma, Delaware County is bordered on the east by McDonald County, Missouri, and Benton County, Arkansas, on the south by Adair and Cherokee counties, on the west by Mayes and Craig counties, and on the north by Ottawa County. U.S. Highway 59 crosses the region north and south. The Cherokee Turnpike, also U.S. Highway 412, crosses the southern end of Delaware County. Other important routes include State Highways 10, 20, 28, 85, 116, 125, and 127.   The county lies on the western slopes of the Ozark Plateau, an area of forests, prairies, and farm land. The Grand River and Elk River are the major water courses in the county's northern portion, while Flint Creek and the Illinois River drain in the southern part. The Ozark limestone holds no oil nor any minerals but provides an abundant supply of water. The county's total land and water area is 792.33 square miles.

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 is a continuation of our original
Illinois Trails History and Genealogy Project and we are excited about this opportunity to expand into other states.

We welcome your feedback and comments, and of course, your data contributions. If you have transcribed data that you would like to have posted on this website, please
send it to us.

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



This Site is Available for Adoption!

We are looking for a coordinator for this site. We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this project be as helpful and useful to researchers as it can be. If you are interested in joining our group, view our Volunteer Page  for further information and contact Kim.
