Land was actually allocated for school land in Oklahoma before the 1889 land run took place so those 160 acres could not be claimed. example the land where Oklahoma City Community College sets is one such tract.Terry, it goes back much farther than the school lunch program. The feds gave land to be used for school purposes to the states when they became states. So they got their hooks set from the get-go!
Originally it was section 16 in each township. Then they added section 36 in each township. Sometimes they'd substitute other sections in lieu of the one(s) designated if they had already given it to the tribes or settlers. As lands were divvied up that probably changed some, I'm pretty "rusty" on this stuff now.Land was actually allocated for school land in Oklahoma before the 1889 land run took place so those 160 acres could not be claimed. example the land where Oklahoma City Community College sets is one such tract.
In T11N R4W where my great grandfather filed his claim for 160 acres in the '89 land run there were 2 160acre tracts reserved for school land.
Yep, that’s the two in T11N R4WOriginally it was section 16 in each township. Then they added section 36 in each township.
