No, Mexico didn't own Florida. Spain owned Florida until it was ceded to Great Britain. After the American Revolution, in 1783, Great Britain ceded Florida back to Spain. Eventually, it became an American State.

No. It was part of the territories of the New Spain, but Florida was sold to England in 1763. This happened before the United States or Mexico became independent.
