Return to Index History & History Related Items Cordell history: This area of southwest Oklahoma was set aside for the Indian tribes of the Cheyenne, Arapaho, Wichita, Caddo, Delaware, Kiowa, Comanche and Apache. After the 1892 Oklahoma land run, Cordell became a center for housing and commerce. It wasn't long before the lack of a satisfactory water supply forced all to relocate one mile to the southwest. This became the present location of New Cordell. The town's legal name is New Cordell, but it is seldom used by the locals. With a donation of land in 1897, there was a move to change the Washita County Seat from Cloud Chief to Cordell. The move was voted on and approved in 1899. Though the voting had taken place for approval, there were some who were not convinced, therefore, the official move did not take place until 1904 when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled and a special Act of Congress enacted. The first courthouse was a small two-story, wooden building on the town square's east side. A replica of the Liberty Bell is kept in this location now. The original structure burned on August 4, 1909. Luckily, most of the records were saved. The new courthouse was built in 1910. The City of New Cordell is centered around a town square in which the Washita County Courthouse is located. The New Cordell Historic Courthouse Square District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
