The Spanish and Mexican land grants of present day Cameron County
For many years the author has been interested in the history of the land of Cameron County, especially the territory surrounding Brownsville. This interest leads to the purpose of this research study, the Spanish and Mexican Land Grants of Cameron County.
The author wanted to make a detail study of each grant but realized that such a study was impossible within the limits of this thesis. A brief history of the land grants is given up to the time of the main partitioning of each grant. These main partitions occur at different times, ranging from 1856 to 1934. After the time of the main partitions, the titles became too complicated to trace with any appreciable degree of accuracy or clarity because of the lack of uniformity in the use of the Christian names and surnames; lack of official recordings of transfers of title to the lands by the heirs of the grantees presents another problem. Two Spanish land grants, the Brazos Island grant and the Padre Island grant, are not mentioned in this thesis due to the complexity of their titles.
The author would like to repeat that this thesis is not a thorough study of the Spanish and Mexican land grants on the mainland of present day Cameron County as this would be a full-time task taking many years to complete, but with this brief sketch, maybe a better understanding can be had of the history of the land in Cameron County
