History

A post office was established at Byrd, Indian Territory on March 3, 1892. It was named for William L. Byrd, Governor of the Chickasaw Nation. Its name changed to Owl, Indian Territory on July 10, 1894. The post office took its name from nearby Owl Creek, a branch of Leader Creek, a tributary of Clear Boggy Creek. On June 11, 1907 the post office was moved a few miles northeast and the name changed to Centrahoma, Indian Territory. Its name was coined from “central Oklahoma.”
