Florida was sold to the United States by Spain through the Adams-Onís Treaty, signed in 1819 and ratified in 1821. The treaty was named after U.S. Secretary of State John Quincy Adams and Spanish Minister Luis de Onís. Spain ceded Florida to the U.S. in exchange for settling border disputes and the U.S. renouncing any claims to Texas. The transfer was officially completed on July 17, 1821.
