About Beaver, OK

Beaver is located by Beaver River, also known as North Canadian River, and began as the location of a fur- trading post in 1879. Its original name was Beaver City, and was planned to be the capital of the short-lived Cimarron Territory. The Federal government never recognized the proposed Territory, but Beaver City remained the center of business and law enforcement for the area. In 1890, the territory was assigned to Oklahoma Territory, and Beaver City became the seat for the entire Oklahoma Panhandle, then known as Seventh County. Beaver began as a stop on the Jones and Plummer Trail.
