Indian Pioneer History Project
Choctaw County Interviews

During the middle and late 1930's the WPA (Works Progress Administration) began an ambitious interview program employing more than 100 writers who ultimately conducted more than 11,000 interviews detailing life in early day Oklahoma. When completed, the Indian Pioneer Papers consisted of over 45,000 pages in 112 volumes.

The records listed below deal with interviews relating to the area that became Choctaw County at statehood in 1907. If you know of other interviews relating to Choctaw County that are not listed below, please let us know at the county coordinator's email link at the bottom of the page.

The University of Oklahoma Western History Collection has digitized the Indian Pioneer Collection. Most of the following links are to their pdf files found at
