Treaty of Cahuenga

The Treaty of Cahuenga ended the fighting of the Mexican-American War in California. The treaty was signed by Lieutenant-Colonel John C.

The following Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848 formally ceded California to the United States and fixed the disputed border in Texas, ending hostilities with Mexico.
