Territorial Incorporation Records

The Incorporation Records for the Oklahoma and Indian Territories have been digitized in a joint project with the Oklahoma Historical Society and the Oklahoma Secretary of State's Office. The ledger books were generated by the Territorial secretary as new businesses and municipalities began conducting business. There are twenty-seven volumes of Oklahoma Territory Incorporation Records and fifteen volumes for Indian Territory.

There are twenty-seven volumes of Oklahoma Territory incorporation records and fifteen volumes for Indian Territory.
