These letters were sent from Indian Territory by those seeking land in the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889. The adventurous writers sent home bits and pieces of news about new vocations, deaths, murders, births, fights, shootings, politics, prices for commodities and more. These land seekers, correspondents, cowboys and other citizens writing these letters provide a great historical record of the settlement of Indian Territory and the American west during the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889.

Wilhelmina Boehm was born in Saxony in 1835 and came to America as a girl. At 18 she was married to Fred Ney, aged 21, in Arnheim, Ohio. Fred and Minna farmed first in Ohio, and then in Illinois, and then in Louisiana. Their family grew to eleven sons and daughters, forty grandchildren, and a lot of great-grand-children. In their old age they went to live with a daughter in Medford, Oklahoma, where Fred died in 1919 at the age of 87, and Minna in 1923, also at 87. Most of the letters in this volume were written by Minna from Medford to her daughter Eliza Hagius, but it includes also a number of other family letters and documents. The letters give a day-to-day picture of farm life in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and what it was to live through World War I and the Spanish Influenza epidemic. They also portray the progress of a large family as it spread westward to the Pacific, and moved off the farm and into the towns and cities.

The great rush for the Oklahoma lands in 1889 was more than a regional event--it was a national excitement comparable to the California and Colorado gold rushes and involved people from all parts of the country. Some were honest, God-fearing citizens; some were not. Stan Hoig's The Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889 is the first study to take an in-depth look at what really took place before and after the shots were fired at high noon on April 22.

After immigrants flooded into central Oklahoma during the land rush of 1889 and the future capital of Oklahoma City sprang up “within a fortnight,” the city’s residents adopted the slogan “born grown” to describe their new home. But the territory’s creation was never so simple or straightforward. The real story, steeped in the politics of the Gilded Age, unfolds in 1889, Michael J. Hightower’s revealing look at a moment in history that, in all its turmoil and complexity, transcends the myth. Hightower frames his story within the larger history of Old Oklahoma, beginning in Indian Territory, where displaced tribes and freedmen, wealthy cattlemen, and prospective homesteaders became embroiled in disputes over public land and federal government policies. Against this fraught background, 1889 travels back and forth between Washington, D.C., and the Oklahoma frontier to describe the politics of settlement, public land use, and the first stirrings of urban development. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, Hightower captures the drama of the Boomer incursions and the Run of ’89, as well as the nascent urbanization of the townsite that would become Oklahoma City. All of these events played out in a political vacuum until Congress officially created Oklahoma Territory in the Organic Act of May 1890. The story of central Oklahoma is profoundly American, showing the region to have been a crucible for melding competing national interests and visions of the future. Boomers, businessmen, cattlemen, soldiers, politicians, pundits, and African and Native Americans squared off—sometimes peacefully, often not—in disagreements over public lands that would resonate in western history long after 1889.
