Note 86 — Front matter

See the treaty of 1824 (Appendix B) for migration. Maximilian says that “the Ioway [Iowa] dwelt on the Grand river till 1827, when they removed to the Little Platte river.” Clark’s reprint of the Travels, Vol. I, p. 245. Later on in the same volume, he writes of this tribe: “On the northern bank, seven miles up that [the Little Platte] river, are the villages of the Ioway Indians....” No doubt the tribe had journeyed in this direction after the troubles of the Black Hawk War in 1832.
