In 1825, The Osage ceded parts of present-day Missouri, Arkansas and most of the future state of Oklahoma to the federal government. After their forced removal from the Southeastern United States, the Cherokee received land in Eastern Oklahoma as well as the Cherokee Outlet in 1828, which included present-day Pawnee County. After the Civil War, the Cherokee agreed to allow other American Indians to settle in the eastern portion of the Outlet. In 1873, the federal government began to relocate the Pawnee Tribe from Nebraska to a reservation here. In 1891, the Pawnee agreed to take land allotments from the reservation, and the remaining land was opened to non-Indian settlers in 1893 during the Cherokee Outlet opening. Pawnee County was organized as County Q, and the future town of Pawnee, Townsite Number 13, was designated the county seat.〔 In 1894, the voters chose the name Pawnee County over the name Platte County.〔 The female bandit, Little Britches, companion in crime with Cattle Annie, lived for a time at Sinnett, site of the Creek Nation in Pawnee County.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cattle Annie & Little Britches, taken from Lee Paul () )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pawnee County, Oklahoma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
