Reagan’s history is
mostly unwritten

The story so far

from Wikipedia & the U.S. Census

Reagan is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Johnston County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 67 as of the 2020 Census. A post office operated in Reagan from 1894 to 1931. The town was named after John Henninger Reagan who was Postmaster General of the Confederate States of America.

Half of its homes were built before 1978.

Wikipedia doesn’t have a history of Reagan yet — the old photos, dates and memories neighbors add here are how it gets written.

Nothing in Reagan is on the National Register yet

That’s true of most small towns. It doesn’t mean Reagan has no history, only that no one has written up a nomination. The closest listed place is Tishomingo City Hall in Tishomingo, 7.6 miles away.

How a place gets listed

2Try a local or state list firstMany states keep their own register with a shorter form, a common first step for old barns, halls and schoolhouses.
3Write it upA nomination covers the history, photos and a map. Tishomingo City Hall’s page links to a real one.
