False.

Explanation:

During the second and third Seminole wars, Osceola was a Seminole leader who fought against the United States and refused to move out of Florida. Andrew Jackson in 1821, the 7th U. S President, was a statesman who was commissioned to integrate a new territorial government in Florida.

However, he faced a lot of trouble establishing a new territorial government as Osceola strongly opposed to give up the native land. The Treaty of Payne's Landing in 1832 was also rejected by Osceola though few other Seminole chiefs had signed it.

Osceola was one among those leaders who fought and resisted against the United states to give up their lands with much effort. In the end, he was captured in 1837 and was made to sign a truce in which he had to surrender. Then, after a year Osceola died of quinsy in 1838.
