Directly from my anatomy and physiology book - Marieb & Hoehn Eighth Edition:

"Lymphocytes originate in red bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells."

" B cells become immunocompetent and self-tolerant in the bone marrow."

If you're asking where T cells undergo maturation, that would be in the thymus. The bone marrow (as mentioned above) is where immune cell precursors (including precursors of B and T lymphocytes) are produced.
