The T.B. Ferguson Home is a Victorian-era house in downtown Watonga that was the residence of Oklahoma's last territorial governor and his family. The house has been preserved and serves as a museum focusing on the early history of Blaine County and the opening of this part of Oklahoma to Euro-American settlement in the late 19th century. The furnishings and photographs give a good sense of what life looked like for a prominent family in early territorial Oklahoma.
The museum also covers the complex relationship between the new settlers and the Cheyenne and Arapaho peoples who had lived in this area and who retained tribal lands nearby. It is a modest but well-maintained local history museum and a useful starting point for understanding the town. Hours are limited, typically Thursday through Saturday — call ahead to confirm.
