The Seminoles had more than one uprising. The first conflict occurred 1814-1819 while James Monroe was President. The second Seminole War began late in Andrew Jackson;s second term when the government attempted to move the Seminoles out of Florida. It continued through all of Martin Van Buren's term and finally died down after William Harrison and John Tyler took office. James Buchanan was president during what might be called the third and last Seminole war.
