Summary
| Description |
English: The son of German immigrants, Oscar Mitscher was born on June 7, 1861 in Hillsboro, WI. He came to Oklahoma in 1889 and opened O.A. Mitscher & Co., a dry goods and clothing store. Mitscher became mayor of Oklahoma City three years later in April of 1892. During his tenure as mayor, sanitary sewers were constructed in Oklahoma City. He was also the brother-in-law of Byron Shear, who would later serve as mayor as well. After serving as mayor, President William McKinley appointed him Osage Indian agent in Pawhuska in 1900. He returned to Oklahoma City in 1904. Mitscher died in 1926 and is buried at Fairlawn Cemetery. |
