Piney, Oklahoma
Piney is a census-designated place (CDP) in Adair County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 115 at the 2010 census.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Piney CDP, Oklahoma )〕 Piney was the "head town" of the first wave of relocated Cherokee people (the "Old Settlers") who relocated there from their ancestral homelands in the southeastern United States.
==History==
Piney was established in 1824 as the Cherokee head town, serving as the council seat (informal capital) of the Cherokee Nation–West from 1824 to 1828. The town was part of what was then Arkansaw Territory.〔(''Ghost Towns of Oklahoma'' ); Morris, John Wesley; Norman, OK; University of Oklahoma Press; 1978; ISBN 978-0-8061-1420-0; accessed November 2015〕 In 1828, the western borders of the future state of Arkansas were finally drawn (running just one mile east of the settlement), and the old Arkansaw Territory was split into two. The Cherokee Nation capital city was created in the more centrally located Tahlonteeskee in Sequoyah County, located in the western side of the split (the new Indian Territory). Most of the Cherokee residents migrated further west into their designated districts in the Indian Territory following the territorial split. A Baptist missionary, Duncan O'Bryant, who had served in Piney for a time, remained behind. He died in 1834 and his grave is there.〔
Piney had a post office from November 24, 1913 to August 20, 1921. The town reached its largest size about 1916. It had a general store (where the post office was located); a gristmill; a blacksmith's shop; and a school, which is now used as a community building. The incorporated town continued until 1940.〔 The original settlement of Piney is now considered a ghost town, although some residents still live in the area (2011).〔
