Era of the Cattle Trails in Cherokee Strip History

—Sculpture: by Harold T. Holden —

By the close of the Civil War in 1865, the cattle herds and cowboys from Texas began forging trails through Oklahoma and The Cherokee Strip to rail heads in Kansas. The most famous route of all was the Chisholm Trail. Caldwell Kansas became the final terminus for the herds in the late 1880s as the railroads began extending their tracks further south into the Cherokee Strip.
