William H. Seward did not acquire Hawaii; instead, he is known for his role in the acquisition of Alaska from Russia in 1867. The U.S. officially annexed Hawaii in 1898, long after Seward's tenure as Secretary of State (which ended in 1869). Seward did, however, advocate for American expansionism in the Pacific, which laid some groundwork for future interest in Hawaii.
