- BIA (Bureau of
Indian Affairs) : General information on enrollment, laws, etc. with

- Native American
Heritage Museum : Run by the Kansas State Historical Society, this
museum is located in Highland, Kansas, about 10 miles from White Cloud. It
was built in what was the historic Iowa, Sac and Fox Mission, and now has a
variety of exhibits that cover the original tribes of Kansas, the immigrant
tribes of Kansas, and the contemporary mix of Indian and white cultures in
the area.

Moines, Iowa, this outdoor museum has a re-imagined/recreated Ioway Village
from about 1700, with bark houses and native crop gardens.

Heritage : Information from the
Office of the State Archeologist of Iowa, on the archeology of Iowa, the
original homelands of the Iowa Tribe. Especially note the sections called "Oneota
Culture" and "Historic
Period."
- For the best, most complete site on the ancestral Ioway-Otoe, check out
Larry Zimmerman's Oneota Archaeology,
with Oneota bibliography and database (more from the U of Iowa)
- Lisa Mitten's Native
American Sites : One of the best jumping-off points for exploring other
tribes and Indian resources on the Internet.
- Native American
Indian Resources: My all-time favorite site in terms of Indian content!
It was done by Paula Giese, who passed on in 1997, but there is nothing else
like it on the Web! This site has info on everything Indian: native maps,
stories, authors, art, astronomy, herbal knowledge, food, health, books,
stuff for schoolteachers, games, and the like. Kudos to thise who are
keeping this site up in her memory!
- NativeTech.org.
- Native News Online.
- There are two websites about the town of
White Cloud. Both are interesting, and have excellent photos of many
of the houses and buildings of the town.
WhiteCloud On Line and WhiteCloud on Line (Yahoo Club). To view photos on the yahoo site you have to join the club, but it is
free, and the photos are worth it.
- Introduction to the
American Indian Movement (AIM): 101: Get past the rumors and learn about
AIM and Indian resistance on Jordan
Dill's enormously useful site
