The Seminoles and Americans in Georgia staged raids against each other. Spain was unable to control the border.
In 1818 John C. Calhoun, now secretary of war, ordered U. S. troops under General Andrew Jackson to stop the Seminole raids. In the spring of 1818, Jackson entered Florida and seized St. Marks and Pensacola.
Spanish officials were furious with Jackson's actions. They also realized they could not hold Florida against the Americans. In 1819 they agreed to the Adams-Onís Treaty, in which they gave up control of Florida, or ceded (SEED • ed) it, to the United States. Two years later, the Spanish flag was lowered forever in Pensacola and St. Augustine.
