Austin's First Colony: The Old 300

We learned more Texas history from Monte Parks, from Jesse H. Jones Park. He told the story of Moses and Stephen F. Austin as they made deals with the Spanish and Mexican governments so that they could bring colonists to the place known today as Texas. There were many trials and tribulations as the settlers tried to carve out their place in history; now known as the Old 300.
