Texas was founded December 29, 1845

I was born in Texas and have lived her most of my life. The history of Texas and its development is a crucial piece of the history of the United States. My paternal ancestors migrated to Texas during the 1800’s. Unfortunately I am unaware of whether that migration was forceful or by choice. Nevertheless, I will continue to explore the world around me, past present and future.
