History

In the Lake Country of south central Oklahoma, Bryan County was formed in 1907 from Choctaw Nation land. Its county seat, Durant, is on US-69 about 130 miles SSW of Oklahoma City. Bryan is bordered by the Oklahoma counties of Marshall, Johnston, Atoka and Choctaw; and across the Red River by the Texas counties of Grayson and Fannin.

Census Records

A special thanks to Pat Roberts for transcribing all of our Oklahoma Census records.
