There are 5 states that were originally part of other states (after 1776):

-- Vermont declared independence from New York and New Hampshire and was a separate republic from 1777 to 1791.

-- Tennessee was originally part of North Carolina, until ceded to the federal government as the Southwest Territory in 1790.

-- Kentucky was part of Virginia until it separated to become a state in 1792.

-- Maine voted to separate from Massachusetts in 1820, becoming the 23rd US state.

-- West Virginia was created in 1863 from the western counties of Virginia that supported the Union in the US Civil War.

Is Hawaii a extradition state?

ALL US States will extradite (it's actually called Rendition) a person that commits a serious crime in their state, and flees to another state. If a person commits a crime in another state and flees to Hawai'i, the state where the crime was committed will request Hawai'i to return (render) them- and they will. Same for crimes committed in Hawai'i. Extradition is actually when someone flees to another country. Hawai'i is part of the US, of course.
