great find!

so... woodward is listed under 'dallas' county... as far as i know, the county shares the same name as the city. also, as far as i know, oklahoma does not have a 'dallas' county. is this a typo or is this some nugget of ok history i don't know about?

Oddly enough, they have a Woodward county listing, but it brings up a "404" error.
