I have heard that sometime shortly after the Revolutionary War, North Carolina claimed all of the lands west of it's borders all the way to the Pacific Ocean (within its' northern and southern latitudes). Was this claim ever ratified or accepted. What became of this claim? So was California at one time part of North Carolina? I read this information in a book entitled "Trail of Tears" which is an account of the transferring of the Cherrokee Indian Nation from the eastern states to Nebraska.
