The population was 709 at the 2010 census.[3] One of the Choctaw Nation's first and most prominent settlements, Mayhew, Indian Territory, was located three miles north of present-day Boswell. The town was named for S.C. Boswell, a local merchant. HistoryThe Boswell area was one of the Choctaw Nation's first and most important settlements. A Presbyterian missionary station was founded at Mayhew, Indian Territory, three miles north of present-day Boswell in the 1840s. It soon became a government center as well as seat of civilization. Mayhew became the administrative and judicial capital of the Pushmataha District, one of three administrative super-regions comprising the Choctaw Nation.[4] A United States Post Office was established at Mayhew, Indian Territory on February 5, 1845 and operated until September 30, 1902. It then moved two miles south to Boswell, which was then a new townsite along the new railroad, and changed its name to Boswell. Boswell was named for S.C. Boswell, a local merchant.[5] GeographyAccording to the United States Census Bureau, Boswell has a total area of {{convert|0.7|sqmi|km2}}, of which, {{convert|0.7|sqmi|km2}} of it is land and 1.43% is water.

In filmThe Mobile Service Station scenes in the cult classic Two-Lane Blacktop (1971) were filmed in Boswell. Two-Lane Blacktop, starring singer-songwriter James Taylor, Warren Oates, Laurie Bird, and Dennis Wilson, is notable as a time capsule film of U.S. Route 66 during the pre-Interstate Highway era, and for its stark footage and minimal dialogue. As such it has become popular with fans of Route 66. Two-Lane Blacktop has been compared to similar road movies with an existentialist message from the era, such as Vanishing Point, Easy Rider, and Electra Glide in Blue.
