    Hello and thanks for posting such a great question. Without knowing where you've already searched I'm including a couple of search suggestions. I love Research Wiki and have found a lot of information here. Not sure if you've already tried Research Wiki. To get there go to FamilySearch and click on the Search tab. You'll see the very bottom option in the box is Research Wiki. Once you're in Research Wiki click inside the search bar for California or Oklahoma. That'll take you to all the records available for California and Oklahoma. Here is a quick link to get there:

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Main_Page

    Also, try searching all collections for California or Oklahoma. This will help narrow down the search. In FamilySearch click on the Search tab. Scroll down a bit underneath Search Historical Records. You'll see Find a Collection. In the collection title search bar type in California or Oklahoma. This brings up all the collections within those states.

    Also, I noticed that FamilySearch and Ancestry both have a California Divorce Index collection but for 1966-1984. You might need to contact a government agency in California for divorce records before 1950 and see if they are even available.

    I hope these suggestions help a bit.
