Here’s another Ada you probably didn’t know about.

Ada, Oklahoma, is the county seat in Pontotoc County, Oklahoma, and is located in south central part of the state. It’s also 90 miles from Oklahoma City. The population was 16,810 at the 2010 census, larger than our Ada. In 1891, a post office was established and the city was named for Ada Reed, the daughter of Jeff Reed, the first local mail carrier and a relative of the Daggs family that first settled there.

The American Red Cross is urging area residents to take precautions following the severe winter weather impacting the local area this week. Millions of people from the Midwest to the Northeast are facing extremely cold temperatures, high winds and heavy snow over the next few days. The Red Cross is watching the storm and prepared to respond if necessary.

“People should check in on their neighbors and use caution as record lows hit our area,” said Todd

James, Executive Director of the American Red Cross of Hancock, Seneca and Wyandot Counties.
