Abstract: "Under contract to the Oklahoma State Historic Preservation Office, Brad A. Bays of Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, conducted the Survey of Historic Barns in Northwestern Oklahoma (OK/SHPO Management Regions One and Two) during the fiscal year 2010-2011. That survey encompassed 13 counties and required the project director to log over 5,000 miles in 25 field trips. The goals of the survey were: (a) to develop an historic context of barns in the region; (b) to sample each county in the region to collect empirical data and report general (thematic-level) patterns of historic barn resources that will assist the preservation planning process; (c) to substantially increase the number of historic barns recorded in the Oklahoma Landmarks Inventory (OLI); and (d) to identify historic barns in the region that are eligible for National Register listing." Funding was provided in part by a 2010 Historic Preservation Fund grant administered by the Oklahoma State Historic Preservation Office (project number OK-10-402, grant number 40-10-21943) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
