Welcome to Grant County Oklahoma Genealogy
Trails
Volunteers Dedicated to Free Genealogy
Grant County, located in north-central Oklahoma, lies in the most
northern tier of counties bordered on the north by the
state of Kansas.
Surrounded by Kay
County on the east,
Garfield County
on the south, and
Alfalfa
County on
the
west, Grant
County has a total
of 1,003.61 squares miles of land
and
water. Situated in the Red Bed Plains and in the Great
Salt Plains, the area
is noted
as a
wheat-growing region.
The
grassy plains are drained by the
Salt
Fork of the
Arkansas River,
which flows from west to east in the southern half
of the
county. North-south
tributaries such as Pond, Deer,
Osage,
and Crooked
creeks flow into the
Salt Fork. The
Chikaskia River (pronounced
chi-KAS-kee-uh)
originates in the county's
northeastern corner, crossing
west
to east into Kay
County. The county was named
after Pres. Ulysses S. Grant.

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.
