Tejas 1773, Texas General Land Office.

Tejas, (tayshas, texias, thecas?, techan, teysas, techas?) had wide usage among the Indians of East Texas before arrival of the Spanish.[2] Later expeditions by Spanish used it as an alternative to Asinay (Hasinai). The Spanish left a deep mark on this land: their European livestock caused the mesquite to spread inland when farmers tilled and irrigated the land. Spanish language provided names for many rivers, towns, and counties that currently exist. [3]. Missions used by Spanish crown, were established by Dominicans, Jesuits, and Franciscans to spread Christian doctrine among local Native Americans. 26 missions were maintained for different lengths of time within future boundaries of Texas.

1519 Alonso Alvarez de Pineda explores, maps Texas coastline.
1528 Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, a survivor of the Panfilo Narvaez Expedition, documents his 8-year rescue attempt while trying to get back to New Spain, explores Texas interior; in 1541 publishes La Relación.[1]
1540-42 Francisco Vasquez de Coronado (1510-1554) (Spain) explored much of Southwest America including Texas. "[2]
April 20, 1598 -Spaniard Juan de Oñate arrived at the Rio Grande near El Paso, Texas colony and celebrated Mass.
1684 - 1689 FRENCH TEXAS Texas claimed by French explorer René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle for France. His faulty maps misled René Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, who was sailing for the mouth of the Mississippi River but landed near Matagorda Bay. This location was on the right bank Garcitas Creek in the current Victoria County. It probably had no name as La Salle called it "the habitation on the riviére aux Boeufs (Buffalo River) also known as Buffalo Bayou near the baye Saint-Louis.". From this Fort Saint Louis name began.
This was a doomed expedition, not only did he miss the Mississippi, but one of the ships was wrecked when it ran aground. This left no ship to return the settlers to France. He planted the French Flag, and In 180 French colonists were: 6 young women, 2 families with 7 children. The settlers had several cannon for defense, and The settlement began, the people ran out of food..La Salle and crew set off to find help on Mississippi River, but the crew mutinied and La Salle died in a mutiny. The settlers were not farmers. Gradually starvation killed them as well as the Karankawa Indians massacred some. One child hidden by the Indian women lived to give this account.[3]

They had established Fort St. Louis Colony (starvation, massacre from Karankawa raid). In 180 French colonists were: 6 young women, 2 families with 7 children. One of La Salle's ships ran aground, leaving no ship to bring supplies. La Salle and crew set off to find help on the Mississippi River, but La Salle died in a mutiny.

Evolution of Government Structure

Comancheria, Public domain.

Spain had an efficient and relatively successful system for expanding Spanish culture and politics to new lands. However the indigenous people were never totally subdued. The system that embodied in the Laws of the Indies and included the construction of missions and presidios and the formation of civil settlements worked until the Jesuits were expelled by the crown. Sonora was divided into several departments. Departments were subdivided into municipalities, which were governed by alcaldes, similar to a modern-day mayor. This system of government was not sustainable due to numerous Apache raids and after the Mexican Revolution in 1824 the area was all but abandoned by European interest. In 1848 the United States won the Mexican War and gained all of Arizona, north of the Gila River through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo

  • 1776 Provincias Internasor Commandancy General of the Internal Provinces of the North was a colonial, administrative district of the Spanish Empire, created to provide more autonomy for the frontier provinces in the Viceroyalty of New Spain, present day northern Mexico and southwestern United States. The goal of its creation was to establish a unified government in political, military and fiscal affairs.
  • 1811 Spain abolishes all slavery in most of its territories (exceptions: Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Santo Domingo).[20][21]

  • 1820: Mexico formally abolishes slavery with the Plan of Iguala, proposed by Agustín de Iturbide and ratified the following year by him and the Viceroy, O'Donojú.. However this region was under Spanish rule.[23]

Empresario Land Grants to Encourage Colonization in Texas

The Mexican Government established Empresario colonies as it didn't have many colonists. All settlers had to take an oath to Mexico, had to submit paperwork in Spanish, and had to learn Spanish. Everything was geared to obey they Mexican government's laws.

Empresario colonies were established under contracts with Mexican land grants and later the Republic of Texas added more colonies.

The Old 300 Hundred Colony was granted by Mexican government to Austin's father. Ill health caused him to ask Stephen to come manage and make money on the colony.

Stephen Austin's Old Three Hundred 297 grantees in 1821, made up of families and some partnerships of unmarried men, who purchased 307 parcels of land from Stephen Fuller Austin, establishing a colony. [29]

DeWitt's colony [30]April, 1825, Green DeWitt was awarded Empresario grant for 6 years by Saltillo, Coahuila with vague boundaries, subject to Mexican 1824 Colonization Law to settle 400 Anglo-Americans on Guadalupe and Lavaca Rivers. Pioneers landed, took up the 199 Dewitt colony grants and 39 settled along Guadalupe R. Stipulations: 1) respect previous colonists' rights, 2) official correspondence had to be in Spanish, 3) schools had to teach in Spanish, 4) militia, 5) Catholic church. This colony provided the "Texas Immortals" who went to the aid of Colonel Travis and Defenders of the Alamo in 1836 (74 miles from San Antonio). [31][32] [33]

Slaves

Set up categories under Slave Ownewrs

Slavery was a source of contention between the Anglo-American settlers and Spanish governors. Governors feared growth in the Anglo-American population in Texas, by early 19th century, superiors in Mexico City disapproved of expanding slavery.

Vicente Guerrero, Mexico's president freed any and all remaining slaves on Sept. 15, 1829, although Texians obtained an exemption from the national emancipation law until 1830. To circumvent the law, numerous Anglo-American colonists converted their slaves to indentured servants, with life terms.

Greetings, profile managers; this page no longer falls under the scope of the US Southern Colonies Project, so please remove all references to that project (the page name will also need a rename). This really great page would now fall very nicely under the Texas project.
