by Located in north-central Oklahoma, Pawnee County is bordered on
the north and east by Osage
County
and the Arkansas River, on the south by Creek and Payne counties, and on the west
by Noble
and Payne counties.
Organized as Q County following
the Cherokee Outlet land opening on September
16, 1893, it
was renamed Pawnee County in 1894 for the Pawnee tribe. The western
one-third of the county lies in the Red Bed Plains
physiographic region, and the
Sandstone Hills region
comprises the remaining two-thirds. With 594.87 square
miles of land and water, the county is drained by the
Cimarron and Arkansas
rivers as well as tributaries such
as Black Bear Creek. At the turn of the
twenty-first
century incorporated towns included Blackburn, Cleveland, Hallett,
Jennings, Maramec, Pawnee (county seat), Quay, Ralston,
Shady Grove, Skedee,
Terlton, and Westport.
