About Bryan Township
Located in the western portion of Lincoln County, bordered on the west by Oklahoma County's Dewey Township, Bryan Township has historically been a rural area, bypassed by all major highways. The Captain Creek community, which never had a Post Office and isn't even mentioned in Oklahoma Place Names, is its most concentrated settlement. If you are researching the old families of Captain Creek, you may well find information in old copies of the Luther Register as its founding families often had ties to families Oklahoma County.
You will find more information about the area and its families on the Lincoln County GenWeb site, as well as in The New Sharon's Place.
