Texas

Long before the asshole Gringos of the fictional Alamo arrived illegally in
New Spain…..

In fact one of her relative died in La Bahia, at that original French ‘fort’ that Texas A & M was looking for a finally think they found a few years ago.

An Indian arrow into his neck, he died I believe in 1723 on Christmas Eve
at Bahia according to written accounts

NUESTRA SEÑORA DE LORETO DE LA BAHIA PRESIDIO.Nuestra Señora de Loreto Presidio, popularly called La Bahía, dates from April 4, 1721, when Capt. Domingo Ramón occupied the site of La Salle's Texas Settlement on the right bank of Garcitas Creek five miles above its mouth in Lavaca Bay. Ramón, as part of the Aguayo expedition, was to hold this crucial site while the main thrust of the expedition, led by the Marqués de San Miguel de Aguayo, proceeded into East Texas. Aguayo’s purpose was to drive out any French and reestablish the missions abandoned in 1719 ahead of the French invasion—actually a feeble French thrust known as the Chicken War, the Texas manifestation of the War of the Quadruple Alliance.

A year after Ramón’s occupation, April 6, 1722, the Marqués de Aguayo laid out the plan for construction of fortifications at the La Salle settlement site, in southern Victoria County. The new presidio was to guard the coast against possible French intrusion: a prescient move in view of the fact that French maritime expeditions had probed the coast in 1720 and 1721, seeking “La Salle’s bay” with expectations of building fortifications.
