Genealogy research is one of the fastest growing hobbies in the United States. The Cherokee Strip Regional Heritage Center offers many historical research resources for northwest Oklahoma. The Research Center is also equipped with Ancestory.com for those on a quest to find their roots beyond the Cherokee Strip.
