Fox Indians, a turbulent North American tribe of the Algonquin family, prominent in the wars of the 18th century, when its warriors sided alternately with the French and English. They also appeared as allies of the English in the war of 1812-14. A number now farm lands acquired by purchase in Iowa; but most of the tribe are settled, with the kindred Sacs, on a reservation in Indian Territory, between the Canadian and Arkansas rivers.
