Summary

Description
English: Map cessions of the Five Southeastern tribes in which Andrew Jackson was an agent. (Includes Treaty of Moultrie Creek, which Jackson made possible by invading Florida in the first Seminole War. As governor of Florida, he was assigned to oversee the treaty, though he left before the treaty was finally negotiated and signed, see Mahon, 1962 cited below.)

Image does not include Creek cessions to the state of Georgia or the Cherokee cessions previous to 1835 as these did not involve Andrew Jackson.
