    1. [OKLINCOLN] Recap - 1891 Lincoln County Land Run
    2. Rochelle
    3. I want to thank everyone who was so very kind by offering their experiences in obtaining section numbers for their ancestors who took part in the 1891 Land Run. Although the Lincoln County website lists the individuals by township it does not give the section #. I wrote Lincoln County's County Clerk and they wrote back saying they must have the section number before they could provide any information on the land. 1. I was advised that the University of Central Oklahoma, Edmond had records on the land run. My cousin went there looked at microfilms, books, etc. but found nothing. 2. Mr. Matthews advised the Lincoln County Historical Society had a book that listed the sections. "Oklahoma Land Run of '91 A Lincoln County Centennial" for $5.40. 3. Tracy said she had no luck with the courthouse and had called the Historical Society. 1-405-258-2425. I called the Society this morning and they are so very helpful. They will even look in the history books they have for your ancestors name. So you will save a great deal of effort to just contact by writing or calling the Lincoln County Historical Society. Again, thank everyone on the list for being so very helpful. Rochelle in the Sierra Foothills
