List of Spanish Americans

This is a list of notable Americans of Spanish descent, including both original immigrants who obtained American citizenship and their American descendants.

There are also many people in the United States of Hispanic "national" origin, (e.g.: Cuban Americans, Mexican Americans and Puerto Rican Americans) or other Latin Americans, who ultimately trace all of their heritage back to Spain and form part of the ethnic "Spanish American"- population (In the census of 2010 more than 26 million Hispanic and Latino Americans reported having Spanish ancestors).

The list also includes many settlers and descendants of Spanish settlers who lived in the Spanish colonies south of the current U.S. when those territories were incorporated into U.S. and to his inhabitants were given the U.S. citizenship (Louisiana is incorporated in 1803, Florida in 1819, and the Southwest was incorporated in 1848).

This list is ordered by surname within section.

To be included in this list, the person must have a Wikipedia article showing they are Spanish American or must have references showing they are Spanish American and are notable.
