Murray County Government

Murray County became the third smallest County on November 16, 1907 from the Chickasaw Reservation when Oklahoma became the 46th State.

Murray County was named for William H. Murray, president of the Constitutional Convention and later Governor of Oklahoma. The County seat is Sulphur, located in the south-central section of the State, in the 1,000 square mile Arbuckle Mountains, and Chickasaw National Recreation Area. It is bounded by Garvin & Pontotoc Counties on the North; Johnston County on the Southeast; and Carter County to the Southwest. Murray County lies within the boundaries of the Chickasaw Nation.

The Arbuckle Mountains, Turner Falls and the Chickasaw National Recreational Area, including the 2,400-acre Lake of the Arbuckles, have made Murray County a leading tourist attraction.
