C. T. Suddeth

Hoga Tribe (leaders) lived in southern Illinois and western Kentucky in the vicinity of Paducah where the Tennessee River merges with the Ohio River. About 1650, they crossed the Mississippi and became the Dheiga Sioux. They then separated into the Omaha/Ponca, Kaw/Osage, Quapaw. No one knows why they left: weather, plagues, war are possibilities.
