Lake Oologah History
Photo: Mull-Berry
The name Oologah, pronounced oo'-la-gawh, is a Cherokee word meaning "dark cloud."
This area is the birthplace of Oklahoma's best-loved and most famous citizen, Will Rogers, who was born halfway between Claremore and the lake's namesake. "I usually say I was born in Claremore for convenience," he once said, "because nobody but an Indian can pronounce 'Oologah.' "
