This article is about the Ioway Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska. The tribe has recently been making efforts to regain more of their tribal land. This article talks about one of their recent triumphs as they regain land in Nebraska along the Missouri River. While this is not immediately in the Kirksville vicinity, this article shows how the Ioway are working to regain portions of the reservation that they moved to after leaving the Kirksville area.

The article does claim that the “newly acquired land…is a piece of the last remnant of historic tribal land of the Iowa” (Hendee).
