	Quapaw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Quapaw people are a tribe of Native Americans who historically resided on the west side of the Mississippi River in what is now the state of Arkansas.
		The pioneer Lazarist missionary among the Quapaw was Rev. John M. Odin, afterward Archbishop of New Orleans.
		The Quapaw together with the associated remnant tribes, the Miami, Seneca, Wyandot and Ottawa, are now served from the Mission of "Saint Mary of the Quapaws", at Quapaw, Oklahoma, in charge of a secular priest and several Sisters of Divine Providence, about two-thirds of the surviving Quapaw being reported as Catholic.

	Quapaw
		QUAPAW, Native American tribe of the Siouan language family and of the Plains culture area.
		The Quapaw spoke a language of the Siouan group, and most of the languages in that group were spoken near the Great Lakes or the Atlantic coast.
		As the whites came in, the Quapaw were moved—first to Louisiana and, in the mid-1800s, to a reservation in Oklahoma.

	Quapaw Indian Tribe History
		At the time of separation the Quapaw are supposed to have gone down the Mississippi, and the Omaha group, including the Omaha, Kansa, Ponca, and Osage, up the Missouri.
		In 1877 they were on their reservation in the north east corner of Indian Territory, and in that year the Ponca tribe was brought on their reservation for a short time, being removed to the present Ponca reservation, west of the Osage, in 1878.
		The population of the Quapaw at the time of De Soto's visit in 1541 must have been considerable, as the number of those of the village of Pacaha, who fled to the island on the approach of the Spaniards, is given as 5,000 or 6,000.

		Several hundred years ago, the Quapaw were a division of a larger group known as the Dhegiha Sioux.
		The Quapaw moved down the Mississippi River into Arkansas, displacing the Tunica and the Illinois.
		This is the origin of the word "Ugaxpa," as the Quapaw were known to other tribes, which means (roughly) "the downstream people." The downstream people settled in the area where the Arkansas River met the Mississippi, where the meandering of the two massive rivers had deposited nutrient-rich soil conducive to farming.

	Indian Removal
		According to the white squatters the Quapaw and Choctaw were daily in the "habit of killing their cattle, hogs, and stealing horses, and committing personal abuse on the inhabitants." While the whites called for restoring military protection, the government was considering plans to make the Trans-Mississippi an dumping ground for the eastern Indians.
		The Quapaw wanted to remain in Arkansas but white farmers were expelling them from the newly occupied lands, while the Arkansas Gazette denounced them as "drunken vagabond savages." A new treaty in 1833 reassigned them to lands along the northwestern Arkansas border between the Senecas and Shawnees.
		Not all the Quapaw moved as some preferred to stay in Arkansas and others were in Louisiana and later Texas.
