1890
– 1920
================
UPDATED AUGUST 22,
2021
Oklahoma
became a dumping ground for all the American Indians being pushed out of the southern
and southwestern portions of the United States to make way for the cancerous
white man migration westward. The state was intended as a huge Indian
Reservation, but by 1872 the Railroads began crossing the state and the United
States 'bought back' a great deal of Indian land and pushed them even further
west. In 1889, the first Land Rush
brought some 50,000 settlers into the area.
The
first Territorial Census was taken in 1890 and a Federal census was taken in
1900 breaking the state into Oklahoma and Indian Territory, there were separate
census reports.
Oil
brought more people into the Territory around 1900 and by 1909 Oklahoma became
the 46th of the old 48 states, beating out only New Mexico (47) and Arizona
(48).

Texas August 11, 1888. According to a local historian, Zeke Putnam was the City
Marshal of Allen, Oklahoma who was assassinated January 16, 1909 in Pontotoc
County by a hired gunman. The killing avenged the death of a young man
Putnam had shot who had resisted arrest. It was quite a scandal
involving prominent people in the area. Power and influence reigns to this day
as it did so long ago. The killer of Putnam was to be hung, but got off on
a technicality, was retried and sentenced to life. The person who hired
the killer was a prominent citizen who had a good lawyer. He lost a lot
of his land to the lawyer in payment. The story goes on...After the killing of
Zeke Putnam, those who had knowledge were also in danger. The nearly
full-term pregnant wife of one of the principals who participated in the plan
was also shot and killed because she knew too much. Then shortly after
those deaths, a well-known rancher from Ada was bushwhacked and killed by
a hired gunman. Authorities tried to tie the killings together, but mob
violence took its course resulting in a lynching of four men taken from the
jail in the middle of the night. This event made history and was the
beginning of the end to the days of the Wild West in our Country.
The story also made legal history and the case is cited in law books regarding
appeals. Pearl will die soon and Zeke will marry Claudia Goynes
here in Ada on March 1, 1903. Then he’ll be shot, of course, in 1909. The kids
plus two more are all here living with Claudia and her parents James and Ruth Goyne in what will be Grady County by 1910.
