Greer County, located in the great state of Oklahoma, has a rich history dating back to the early days of American westward expansion. The region was initially part of the Texas Panhandle, but disputes arose between Texas and the federal government over the correct boundary between Texas and what was then known as the Oklahoma Territory. The area was known as Greer County, Texas, and was named in honor of John Alexander Greer, a Texas Lieutenant Governor.

The controversy arose due to discrepancies between the 1819 Adams-Onis Treaty, which designated the Red River as part of the boundary between the United States and Spain, and the 1830 Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek, which assigned the land south of the river to the Choctaw Nation. In 1860, the United States Congress settled the dispute by declaring Greer County as part of the Oklahoma Territory, but the Texas government did not accept this decision, resulting in ongoing jurisdictional tensions.

The matter was finally resolved through the 1896 United States Supreme Court case, United States v. Texas, which ruled that Greer County belonged to the Oklahoma Territory. This decision was highly significant, as it predated the Oklahoma Land Run in 1889 and Oklahoma statehood in 1907, setting important precedents for the establishment of the state's current borders.

As for a fun fact about Greer County, the region served as an important grazing land for longhorn cattle during the late 19th century. Due to its proximity to both the Red River and the Dodge City and Red River Trails, Greer County was central to the great cattle drives, when cowboys guided large herds across the region on their way to markets in Kansas and other nearby states. This rich cowboy culture is still celebrated today through local events and festivals.
