The Mexican Cession included present-day California, Nevada, and Utah (that's three), along with portions of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming. The "fourth" is probably Arizona, because it's made of land mainly from the Mexican Cession though it also includes a small portion from the later Gadsden Purchase. New Mexico is about half from the Mexican Cession, a small portion from the Gadsden Purchase, and the remainder from the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Only small portions of Colorado and Wyoming were included in the Mexican Cession.

MexicoThe Gadsden Purchase is a region of present-day southern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico purchased by the U.S. from Mexico on December 30, 1853, the last of such large territorial acquisitions in the mainland United States. The influence of the railroad industry sought expansion to the pacific coast through the recently acquired territories of the Mexican Cession. The land was too mountainous for the railroad project so it was imperative that the U.S. territory be expanded further south to allow for a direct route.
