About Savanna, OK

Begun as a rural settlement in the Choctaw Nation part of Indian Territory during the 1860s, the community's economy was based on agriculture and cattle ranching. Coal mining became the most important economic activity during the 1870s. A post office was established on May 5, 1876. As coal mining developed, the community became one of the largest in Indian Territory. The mining companies built rows of 2- and 3- bedroom houses for the families of the miners.
