Missouri ('great muddy,' referring to Missouri r.). A tribe of the Chi were group of the Siouan family. Their name for themselves is Nititachi. According to Gale the early form of the word JNIissouri is Algoncjuian, of thelllinoisdialect. The most closely allied tribes are the Iowa and theOto. Accordingto tradition, after hav- ing parted from the Winnebago at Green bay, the Iowa, Missouri, and Oto movetl westward to Iowa r., where the Iowa stopped. The rest continued westward, reaching the Missouri at the mouth of Grand r. Here, on accoimt of some dis- pute, the Ot(j withdrew and moved farther up Missouri r. Manjuette's autograi)h map of 1673, which is perhaps the earliest authentic notice of the tril)e, locates the 8emess8rit on Missouri r., apparently as far N. as the Platte. Joutel (1687) aj)- pears to have been the lirst writer to use the name ^Missouri in this form. It is stated that Tonti met the tribe a day and half's Journey from the village of the Tamaroa, which was on the Mississippi, 6 leagues below Illinois r. About the beginning of the 18th century the French found them on the left bank of the Missouri, near the mouth of Grand r., and built a fort on an island near them. They continued to dwell in this locality until about 1800. According to Bourg- mont (Margry, Dec, vx, 393, 1886) their village in 1723 was 30 leagues below Kan- sas r. and 60 leagues below the jtrin- cipal Kansa village. About 1798 they were conquered and dispersed by the Sauk and Fox tribes and their allies. Five or six lodges joined the Osage, two or three took refuge with the Kansa, and some amalgamated with the Oto, but they soon recovered, as in 1805 Lewis and Clark found them in villages s. of Platte r., having abandoned their settlements on Grand r. some time previously on ac- count of smallpox. They were visited again by an epidemic in 1823. Although their number was estimated in 1702 at 200 families and in 1805 by Lewis and Clark at 300 souls, in 1829, when they were found with the Oto, they numbered only 80. Having been unfortunate in a war with the Osage, part of them joined the Iowa, and the others went to the Oto previous to the migration of the latter to Big Platte r. In 1842 their village stood on thes. bank of Platte r., Nebr. They accom- panied the Oto when that tribe removed in 1882 to Indian Territory. There were only 40 individuals of the tribe remain- ing in 1885. They are now otticially classed with the Oto, together number- ing 368 in 1905 underthe Oto school super- intendent in Oklahoma. The gentes, as given by Dorsey (15th Rep. B. A. E., 240, Text Appearing After Image: GEORGE BATES—MISSOURI 1897), were Tunanpin (Black bear), Ho- tachi (Elk), and Cheghita (Eagle) or Wakanta (Tliunder-bird). The Mi.ssouri joined in the following treatieswith the United States: (1) Peace treaty of June 24, 1817; (2) Ft Atkinson, la., Sept. 26, 1825, regulating trade and relations with the United States; (3) Prairie du Chien, Wis., July 15, 1830, ceding lands in Iowa and INIissouri; (4) Oto village, Nebr., Sept. 21, 1833, ceding certain lands; (5) Bellevue, upper Mis- souri r., Oct. 15, 1836, ceding certain lands; (6) Washington, Mar. 15, 1854, ceding lands, with certain reservation; (7) Nel)raska City, Nebr., Dec. 9, 1854, changing boundary of reservation. Morgan (Beach, Ind. Miscel., 220, 1877) used the term Missouri Indians to in- Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work. |
