It was located at the head of Island Bayou in what is now Bryan County, Oklahoma. Island Bayou was then the dividing line between the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations. From March 23, 1869, to February 6, 1871, the Carriage Point post office existed at the site and it is generally referred to by that name in the area. The Fishers were a well known Choctaw family.Fisher's Station (Carriage Point) was added to the National Register of Historic Places (#72001058) in 1972.SourcesShirk, George H. Oklahoma Place Names.
