French fur traders are believed to have set up a temporary village near the site in 1806, and the first permanent European-American settlement was made in 1817 on the south bank of the Verdigris River, north of today's city, near where the Arkansas, Verdigris and Grand rivers meet. After the Indian Removal Act of 1830, the Muscogee Creek were forced from the Southeast into Indian Territory, bringing their enslaved people with them. A two-story stone Indian Agency built on Agency Hill, now in Honor Heights Park, hosted meetings of leaders of the Five Civilized Tribes and is now a museum.
The Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad reached the area in 1872, and a federal court was established in Muskogee in 1889. The city was incorporated on March 19, 1898. Charles N. Haskell, who arrived in March 1901, helped the city grow from about 4,000 people to more than 25,000 by 1910 and built most of the railroads serving it, along with the first five-story business block in the territory. On August 21, 1905, leaders of the Five Civilized Tribes met in Muskogee to draft a constitution for a Native-governed State of Sequoyah, with Muskogee as its capital, but President Theodore Roosevelt and Congress refused it, and Oklahoma entered the Union on November 16, 1907. The Jefferson Highway passed through the city from 1915, and Merle Haggard's 1969 song "Okie from Muskogee" made its name known nationwide. Sources Wikipedia: Muskogee, Oklahoma
