This book was released on 2022-11-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By: Mary Lewis Ulmer, Pub. 1838, Reprinted 2022, 186 pages, soft cover, ISBN #978-0-89308-849-8. This book is one of the most important and most useful books on early Texas. It contains a listing by colony, alphabetically, of every settler granted land in Texas between 1791 and 1836. Upon this list all land titles in Texas were based, and the land ownership established. In addition, following the names of the grantees, there are columns giving date of titles, quantity of land received, location of the land, and remarks, such as "Sam Houston and Phil Sublett, Agents." This is one of the fundamental sources of information on the settlement of Texas, moistly for the period ending in 1835. The period actually covered is from the Spanish period through the Mexican grants and the opening of Texas to foreign settlement, principally by Anglo-Americans, to the Declaration of Independence. The date of the earliest grant is October 18, 1791, to Edward Murphy, official Indian trader at Nacogdoches and the last one, February 27, 1836 to William F. Gray of Austin's Colony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That They May Possess the Land: The Spanish and Mexican Land Commissioners of Texas (1720-1836) by Galen D. Greaser (author) The grievances accumulated by Anglo-American settlers in Mexican Texas in the 1830s did not include complaints about the generous land grants the government had offered them on advantageous terms. Land ownership is central to the history of Texas, and the land grants awarded in Spanish and Mexican Texas are intrinsic to the story. Population in exchange for land was the prevailing strategy of Spain’s and Mexico’s colonization policy in what is now Texas. Population was the objective; colonization the strategy; and land the incentive. Spain and Mexico defined the formal procedures, qualifications, and conditions for obtaining a land grant. Colonization was a two-part process involving, first, the relocation of colonists from their place of origin to the new site and, second, the placement of colonists on the land in conditions that would enable them to become productive citizens. The colonization effort featured the use of private recruiting agents – empresarios - to assist with the first task. Government agents - land commissioners –oversaw the second objective. Title to some twenty-six million acres of Texas land, about one-seventh of its present area, derives from the land grants made by Spain and Mexico to its settlers. A land commissioner played a part in every case. The story of the empresarios who contributed to the colonization of Texas is a staple of Texas history, but an account of the land commissioners engaged in this process is given here for the first time. The cast of commissioners features, among others, a Spanish field marshal, a Dutch baron, a cashiered United States army colonel, a philandering state official, a self-serving opportunist, an Alamo defender, and a Tejano patriot. Drawn largely from primary sources and richly documented, this sometimes contentious story of the Spanish and Mexican land commissioners of Texas helps complete the narrative of the colonization of Texas and the history of its public domain. This study is a reminder of another lasting legacy of Spanish and Mexican sovereignty in Texas, their land grants.
