What was once a part of Russia before it was sold to the US?
Several states, such as Arizona, were part of territories that also formed other states (Arizona was part of the New Mexico territory, and Washington part of the Oregon territory).

Most of Tennessee consists of areas once part of North Carolina, which were split into the Southwest Territory from 1790 to 1796. The state of Vermont was originally claimed by both New Hampshire and New York. Its residents established an independent republic from 1777 to 1791, when it became the 14th US state.

Where is Little Marshall Island Sitka Alaska?
Little Marshall Island is located in Thimbleberry Bay south of Sitka, Alaska. It is approximately 1 acre at wiinter high tide. My former husband and I built a small cabin on it in 1972 and lived on it with our children during the summers until 1981. The cabin has a view of Mt. Verstovia and faces the road to the old pulp mill. I have many fond memories of fishing in and near the bay, watching seal haul out on the island and whales spouting in the channel.
