Grady County is located in the central part of the state of Oklahoma and covers approximately 1,105 square miles. Created in 1907 at the time of Oklahoma statehood, Grady County was named in honor of Henry W. Grady, a renowned American journalist who worked for the Atlanta Constitution. Prior to statehood, the area was mainly populated by a few Native American tribes, including the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, Seminole, and Cherokee, who were all forcefully relocated to the region during the Indian Removal Act of 1830.
During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Grady County experienced significant development through agriculture and livestock, setting the stage for future economic growth. Following World War II, the county's economy diversified, and today includes industries such as construction, manufacturing, and retail trade alongside its agricultural roots.
A fun fact about Grady County is that it is home to the famed "1928 Bunion Derby" statue commemorating the curious story of Andy Payne, a local Cherokee runner from nearby Foyil, Oklahoma. He won the 1928 Transcontinental Footrace, which ran from Los Angeles to New York City, and claimed the $25,000 prize after braving the treacherous 3,423.5-mile route across the United States. The statue stands in a park in the county's capital city of Chickasha, paying tribute to this incredible athletic achievement.
