Welcome to Cherokee Main Street's website!! Visit here for all event & community activities that go on here in Cherokee Oklahoma!!

After the land opening of 1893, developers wanted to attract railroads to build through the former Cherokee Outlet to transport the large wheat crops to markets. The Kansas and Oklahoma Construction Company, through its subsidiary, the Cherokee Investment Company, bought 100 acres (40 ha) along its route, platted the town called Cherokee, and held a lot sale on February 9, 1901. Cherokee incorporated in July 1901. Two years later, the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railroad (later owned by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway) built a line through Cherokee. People from the nearby community of Erwin, which already had a post office of that name, moved to Cherokee for access to the railroad. The post office was renamed Cherokee in March, 1903.[5]

Cherokee became the county seat when state reorganized counties, once part of Woods County, Alfalfa County was created. Named after Alfalfa Bill Murray.[6]

Cherokee is the location of the Cherokee IOOF Lodge No. 219, built in 1931, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
