That is not as easily stated as asked. Wilson Shannon resigned as Govenor of Ohio on April 15, 1844 to take up an appointment from President John Tyler as Minister to Mexico. This appointment occurred just prior to the outbreak of the Mexican-American War in 1846.

But the real issue is when was Manifest Destiny? The phrase "Manifest Destiny" is most often associated with the territorial expansion of the United States from 1815 to 1860. This era, from the end of the War of 1812 to the beginning of the American Civil War, has been called the "Age of Manifest Destiny." During this time, the United States expanded to the Pacific Ocean—"from sea to shining sea"—largely defining the borders of the continental United States as they are today.

So your question is a bit difficult to answer. I believe that you are referring to the period prior to and including the Mexican-American War in 1846. Normal diplomatic relations between the United States and Mexico were interrupted from March 28, 1845 to October 2, 1848. A Special Diplomatic Agent, David Conner, was appointed during the War.

I hope this helps. Good luck
