Oklahoma and the Sesquicentennial

Oklahoma may not be the first state that you think of when you hear or read the phrase “Civil War Sesquicentennial,” but there was a lot of activity in the Indian Territory during the conflict. Oklahoma’s Sesquicentennial website has several digitized collections including the letter collections of David Breese, George Fine, Cyrus Byington, and Dallas Bowman. A Fort Blunt Ledger has also been digitized, and there are over twenty maps to peruse. Check it out!
