COUNTIES OF OKLAHOMA 1930
Oral History is the best tool to start any search, however it does have its flaws. Grandma may tells you the family lived in Adair, now is that is that Adair County or Adair Township in Mayes County. The same would hold true for other names like Carter which is a county and a township in Beckham County. The census records are separated into groups by state, then by county then by townships. Researching for an ancestor on the county level provides a smaller region than that of a state search as a township search would further narrow your search. You should also concern yourself with the boundary line that may have changed over time, changes that may affect your search area. The following is a list of Oklahoma Counties in 1930. This list has also been crossed reference giving an alphabetical listing of townships and the Counties where they are located. Some names from Oral Histories do not exist today, the following Link may aid you in identifying the Names of those locations to day. Ghost Towns of Oklahoma
