Custer County, located in the great state of Oklahoma, was formed on August 19, 1892, out of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Reservation as County G. The name "Custer" was chosen in honor of the famed General George Armstrong Custer, a United States Army officer who fought during the American Civil War and the Indian Wars. The county initially encompassed 696 square miles and later embraced an additional 640 square miles after a territorial amendment in 1900. It is situated in the western part of Oklahoma and belongs to the United States region known as the Great Plains.

The county's history is deeply tied to the Cheyenne and Arapaho Native American tribes, who lived within its boundaries prior to the arrival of settlers in the late 19th century. In 1892, a land run took place, leading to the formation of the county and encouraging a wave of settlers to claim land in the area. This period of rapid settlement transformed the region, initiating a new era of growth and development. The town of Arapaho was later designated as the county seat.

Agriculture plays a significant role in the local economy of Custer County, with major crops being wheat, cotton, and alfalfa along with cattle ranching. Though the discovery of oil in the early 20th century contributed to the regional economic boom, agriculture remains the dominant industry in the county.

A fun fact about Custer County is that it is home to the Washita Battlefield National Historic Site, the location of the Battle of the Washita which took place on November 27, 1868. This historic conflict between the United States Army, led by Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer, and the Southern Cheyenne tribe, led by Chief Black Kettle, was a significant event in the Indian Wars era. Today, the site serves as a testament to the challenges faced by Native Americans during the period of westward expansion and offers a valuable educational resource to visitors.
