Durham County covers an area of 298 square miles, and was named in honor of Dr. Bartlett Snipes Durham who donated the land on which its original railroad station was located. The county is divided into six townships: Carr, Durham, Lebanon, Mangum, Oak Grove, and Triangle; the township of Durham is the county seat, and the only incorporated municipality in Durham County.
