The Otoe were once part of the Siouan tribes of the Great Lakes region, commonly known as the Winnebago. At some point, a large group separated themselves and began to migrate to the south and west. This group eventually split into at least three distinct tribes: the Ioway, the Missouria and the Otoe, who finally settled in the lower Nemaha Valley. Following the Louisiana Purchase, the Otoe were the first tribe encountered by the Lewis and Clark Expedition, meeting at a place that would become known as Council Bluffs. Between 1817 and 1841, the Otoe lived around the mouth of the Platte River in Nebraska, and during this time the remaining families of the Missouria rejoined them. The vast majority of the Otoe-Missouria lands, lying south from the Platte River in eastern Nebraska, were ceded to the U.S. by treaty in 1854, leaving them with a reservation along the Big Blue River on the present Kansas-Nebraska border.

The Otoe were once part of the Siouan tribes of the Great Lakes region, commonly known as the Winnebago.
Here uou can read not only history - you can read story, position and years of this tribe:
 By the spring of 1880, about half of the tribe had left the reservation and taken up residence with the Sac and fox tribe in Indian Territory.
The first land cession treaty between the Otoe-Missouria and the United States was in 1830. These were follows by more treaties in 1833, 1836, and 1854. The 1854 Treaty established a reservation on the Kansas-Nebraska border, near the Big Blue River. 



Here in this link is really interesting information with wonderful story. Here is one of them:
Lizzie (Dailey) Harper: "In Nebraska, a lot of the people heard of allotment. They didn't want it. They wanted free range. Some of them wanted free range. Well anyway, they got it in their head that they were going to run away. They are the ones they called the Coyote Band. And my father's one of them. Several of those Eagles and different ones joined that band. They ran away from the Otoes up there and mingled all around down here. That's how they came to know the Sauk and Fox, the Wichita, the Cheyenne. Then they came back to the tribe after the Otoes settle down here. There was quite a talk on the allotment. White Turkey, he fought it."
More that only iboring information you can red here:
Eventually, the Otoe re-joined the Missouria, forming the present-day tribe of the Otoe-Missouria living near Red Rock, Oklahoma. Unfortunately, they were demorilized by alcohol, starved from lack of food, depleted by smallpox, and forced to move due to the white man's take-over. These were the main reasons for the Otoe re-joining the Missouria.
