Thank you for visiting us! The purpose for which the Southwestern Oklahoma Historical Society was organized on April 20, 1964, was to preserve and promote the history of the pioneers and Indians of Southwest Oklahoma.

We are currently accepting stories for the fall edition of Prairie Lore!
If you, or someone you know has a story about this part of our great state, get in touch with one of our board members, mail it to us, or email it to PrairieLore1901@gmail.com and we will review it for publication.
