1828 CE to 1839 CE

The Iowa cede their Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri lands to the U.S. government between 1820 and 1840.

They surrender the Little Platte territory in Missouri in 1836.

Other Missouri lands had been ceded in 1824.

By 1837 most are relocated to a reservation along the Kansas-Nebraska border, led by their chief Chief Mahaska ("White Cloud").

They settle in a strip of land in Kansas, south of the Big Nemaha River, along with the Sauk and the Fox, tribes with which they have long had friendly relations, though speaking unrelated Algonquian languages.
