Comanche and Apache Indian lands. Its county seat,
Lawton, is on
I-44 about 80 miles southwest of Oklahoma City. Home to the US Army's Fort Sill, Comanche is bordered by the counties of
Caddo, Grady, Stephens, Cotton, Tillman and
Kiowa.

Census Records
A special
thanks to Pat Roberts for transcribing all of our Oklahoma Census records.
Oklahoma was
opened to white settlers with the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889. The
earliest extant census for Oklahoma Territory is for 1900, and Oklahoma
Territory became a state in 1907. No Culpeppers
have been found in any Comanche County censuses prior to 1910.
