    MARY JONES: LAST FIRST LADY OF THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS Birney Mark Fish, B.A., M.Div. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2011 APPROVED: Elizabeth Hayes Turner, Major Professor Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History D. Harland Hagler, Committee Member Denis Paz, Committee Member Sandra L. Spencer, Committee Member and Director of the Women’s Studies Program James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Fish, Birney Mark. Mary Jones: Last First Lady of the Republic of Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), December 2011, 275 pp., 3 tables, 2 illustrations, bibliography, 327 titles. This dissertation uses archival and interpretive methods to examine the life and contributions of Mary Smith McCrory Jones in Texas. Specifically, this project investigates the ways in which Mary Jones emerged into the public sphere, utilized myth and memory, and managed her life as a widow. Each of these larger areas is examined in relation to historiographicaly accepted patterns and in the larger context of women in Texas, the South, and the nation during this period. Mary Jones, 1819-1907, experienced many of the key early periods in Anglo Texas history. The research traces her family’s immigration to Austin’s Colony and their early years under Mexican sovereignty. The Texas Revolution resulted in her move to Houston and her first brief marriage. Following the death of her husband she met and married Anson Jones, a physician who served in public posts throughout the period of the Texas Republic. Over time Anson was politically and personally rejected to the point that he committed suicide.

  • Independence Trail Region, Known As the “Cradle of Texas Liberty,” Comprises a 28-County Area Stretching More Than 200 Miles from San Antonio to Galveston
    n the saga of Texas history, no era is more distinctive or accented by epic events than Texas’ struggle for independence and its years as a sovereign republic. During the early 1800s, Spain enacted policies to fend off the encroachment of European rivals into its New World territories west of Louisiana. I As a last-ditch defense of what’s now Texas, the Spanish Crown allowed immigrants from the U.S. to settle between the Trinity and Guadalupe rivers. The first settlers were the Old Three Hundred families who established Stephen F. Austin’s initial colony. Lured by land as cheap as four cents per acre, homesteaders came to Texas, first in a trickle, then a flood. In 1821, sovereignty shifted when Mexico won independence from Spain, but Anglo-American immigrants soon outnumbered Tejanos (Mexican-Texans). Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna seized control of Mexico in 1833 and gripped the country with ironhanded rule. By 1835, the dictator tried to stop immigration to Texas, limit settlers’ weapons, impose high tariffs and abolish slavery — changes resisted by most Texans. Texas The Independence ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Trail ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On March 2, 1836, after more than a year of conclaves, failed negotiations and a few armed conflicts, citizen delegates met at what’s now Washington-on-the-Brazos and declared Texas independent.

  • Swinney, Wilford 03-31-1986 Transrcipt
    Interview with Captain Wilford Swinney Interviewer: Kerry Owens Transcriber: Kerry Owens Date of Interview: March 31, 1986 Location: Austin Police Department, Austin, TX _____________________ Begin Tape 1, Side 1 Kerry Owens: This is Kerry Owens, and I’m doing an interview for Southwest Texas State University, the Oral History Project, in the History Department. This is March thirty-first. It’s 9:00. I’m at the Austin Police Department, and I’m interviewing Captain Wilford— Wilford Swinney: W-I-L-F-O-R-D and the last name is S-W-I-N-N-E-Y. Owens: Wilford Swinney. He’s been with the Austin Police Department for quite some time. Captain Swinney and I have discussed the legalities of the interview and the options he has available as far as editing, that type of thing. I don’t think at this point he has any questions. Do you think it’s pretty clear, Captain Swinney, as far as how we’re going to conduct the interview? Swinney: Yes, it’s clear now. Owens: I guess I’ll start the interview by asking Captain Swinney when he started to work for the Austin Police Department, or if he did something prior to that. Are you from Austin originally? Swinney: Well, I came here at the age of five. I was born in a place called Burnet County, and the nearest town at that time was Bertram. I was born about two miles south of Bertram, off of Highway 29, old Highway 29. It doesn’t exist any longer. The new Highway 20 goes through there now.
