Eufaula is a city and county seat of McIntosh County, Oklahoma, United States.[5] The population was 2,813 at the 2010 census, an increase of 6.6 percent from 2,639 in 2000.[6] Eufaula is in the southern part of the county, 30 miles (48 km) north of McAlester and 32 miles (51 km) south of Muskogee.[7]
The name "Eufaula" comes from the Eufaula tribe, part of the Musogee Creek confederacy.[7] The town and county are within the jurisdiction of the federally recognized Muscogee Nation, descendants of the tribe who were removed here from the Southeastern United States in the 1830s.[8]
