Ottawa County, located in the northeastern corner of the great state of Oklahoma, has a rich history dating back to the 1800s. Established on July 16, 1907, it was named in honor of the Ottawa Tribe of Oklahoma, which was one of the many Indigenous tribes that inhabited the area. The county's total land area is 480 square miles, and its county seat is Miami.

Prior to European settlement, the fertile lands of Ottawa County were primarily occupied by Indigenous tribes, including the Quapaw, Seneca, Wyandotte, and Miami. The county's development was significantly influenced by the forced relocation of several eastern tribes, who were moved to the area in the early 1800s as a part of the infamous Trail of Tears.

Ottawa County experienced a surge of growth in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, thanks to the discovery of vast deposits of lead and zinc. The county's prominence as a mining hub led to the establishment of several boomtowns, including Picher, Commerce, and Cardin. Consequently, mining played a significant role in the county's economy for decades. However, the region faced environmental challenges stemming from mining, which necessitated numerous cleanup and remediation efforts in recent years.

Today, Ottawa County stands proud as a vibrant part of Oklahoma, boasting a diverse community and celebrating its heritage through various events and attractions. One fun fact about the region is that it is home to the "Sidewalk Highway," a narrow stretch of the original Route 66 that was constructed with only enough width for one lane of traffic. This unique feature provides an intriguing glimpse into the early days of the United States' highway system.
