  • Notes and Documents the Texas Frontier in 1850: Dr. Ebenezer Swift
    Notes and Documents The Texas Frontier in 1850: Dr. Ebenezer Swift and the View From Fort Martin Scott by: CALEB COKER AND JANET G. HUMPHREY The Texas Frontier in 1850 was guarded by a line of army forts ranging from Fort Worth to Fort Duncan near Eagle Pass. With the end of the Mexican War, settlers had begun pushing toward the Texas interior, and troops became available to furnish new towns some measure of protection from raiding bands of Indians. 1 Fort Martin bScott, established between the towns of Fredericksburg and Zodiac in December 1848, was one such military post. The letter reproduced here, from the fort's physician, provides a marvelous glimpse of frontier Texas in 1850. It includes candid descriptions of a farm in Austin, life at the fort, and relationships with the local Indians. Native Americans living in the vicinity of Fort Martin Scott belonged to a number of tribes. The least predictable and most feared, however, were the Comanches. White settlements disrupted their wide-ranging lifestyle and threatened the abundant supply of game. In the mid-1840s their primary tactic was to attack settlers in small raiding parties and then vanish, often taking with them horses and other livestock. These hit-and-run assaults terrorized those on the frontier for decades.2 The Society for the Protection of German Immigrants in Texas had purchased 10,000 acres of forested land just north of the Pedernales River on Barron's Creek in December 1845. By the following May, settlers began arriving from New Braunfels at the town site named Fredericksburg.

CLENDENEN* It often happens that men whose influence on the history of a region or era has had a decisive effect, are overshadowed by more glamorous figures, or by more spectacular events than those in which they played a part. It sometimes hap­ pens, too, that the decisiveness of their actions creates toward them a hostility that causes them to be overlooked in favor of more popular persons, in later years. Very few historical writers have given any attention to the operations of the powerful force of volunteers from Cali­ fornia that crossed the desert of Southern California in the spring of 1862, and joined forces with the New Mexico and Colorado volunteers, on the Rio. Grande. Fewer still know or have said anything about the man who organized, trained and commanded the California force, and who succeeded General E. R. S. Canby in command of the Department of New Mexico, in the summer of 1862.

S. Duncanville, Texas August, 1939 7 s PREFACE The following chapters attempt to show the work that has been done toward restoration, preservation, and marking of historic spots in Texas by patriotic societies, individuals, civic groups, the Centennial Commission, and other agencies. It has not been the purpose of the writer to go into de- tails regarding every one of the sites and individual markers, especially in instances in which several of the same type were erected. In such cases a general description of the markers is given, together with a general idea of the type of inscription that appears on them. Since so much was done by the Centennial Commission, more attention has been devoted to its activities than to those of other organizations un- able to carry out such an extensive program. Credit is due a great many organizations, societies, and individuals that have helped to further the memory of the past by aiding in the program. In many instances it has been necessary to rely upon in- formation from magazines, newspapers, Chamber of Commerce bul- letins, pamphlets, and personal letters, because of the lack of recorded material. The information obtained, however, has been weighed and carefully compared with other sources on the same subject until its authenticity is assured.

Doctor of Philosophy (History), May, 1995, 284 pp., 14 figures, reference list, 116 titles. This dissertation describes the various military outposts on the Texas frontier between 1866 and 1886. It is arranged geographically, with each chapter covering a major fort or geographical area and the smaller posts associated with it. Official military records and government reports serve as the primary sources of data. In 1866 when the United States Army returned to the defense of Texas after four years of civil war, the state's frontier lay open to depredations from several Indian tribes and from lawless elements in Mexico. The army responded to those attacks by establishing several lines of major forts to protect the various danger areas of the frontier.

B. BENDER RoM THE beginning of our history to the late nineteenth F century, frontier defense formed a chief concern of our government. In dealing with this problem prior to the Mex­ ican War, various methods were tried. Land was purchased from the red man, an "Indian country" was created, anilUi­ ties and gifts were furnished the Indian, and a chain of forts was established along the edges of the frontier settlements or in the heart of the Indian country. When the war extended our domain to the Pacific and the California gold discovery attracted new emigrant waves to the Far West, the prob­ lem of frontier defense became more pressing. The virgin lands of the Far Southwest, which in earlier years had an interest only for traders, trappers, and merchants, now beck­ oned miners, speculators, adventurous land-hunters, and home seekers from the more populated districts of the East.

  • The Frontier” by Roy Betzer, 1978
    Excerpts from “The Frontier” by Roy Betzer, 1978 Early U.S. Military Presence in Texas Fort Martin Scott The purpose of the frontier post was to push forward the line of military protection, allowing the establishment of new communities, farms, ranches, mines, etc. To accomplish these goals, both mounted and non-mounted soldiers would, if at all possible, garrison frontier posts. The soldiers at these posts were to patrol and maintain the security of the area. Once an area was secure and communities established, the smaller posts and camps would be decommissioned and the military line would be pushed further out onto the frontier. Usually this resulted in an increase in white settlers, which in turn resulted in increased Indian raids followed by a period of increased troop movements to the new frontier posts. A viscous cycle condoned in the 18305 by the executive branch of the Government of the United States of America in opposition to a ruling of the judicial branch. This constant movement of the line of military posts was a constant reminder to the Native American Indian that their world was being squeezed into an ever smaller and more restricted space. After the War of 1812, the U.S. Army had rid itself of mounted troops saying they were too costly to maintain. Then in the early 1830s, with the prosecution of the Seminole Campaigns, the Army found they needed mounted troops and they raised, with the approval of Congress and the Commander in Chief Andrew Jackson, a regiment of dragoons, and within a few more years a second regiment of dragoons.

C NCLUS I N----------------------------- 109 iii PREFACE This thesis is an attempt to protray the part the forts of the Southwest had in developing the Federal Indian Policy in that region from 1865 to 1885. It is that period in our nation's history when our army was trying to protect our settlers on the western frontier from the savage Indian, marauding Mexican, and renegade white. Perhaps some of the soldiers in tbe United States army of this period were not what they could have been, but it is the author's wish that all who read these pages shall see the soldier the fearless, courageous, and loyal defender of our country's flag that he was. The story of this thesis begins with the Indian sit- uation in the Southwest at the close of the Civil War and closes when the last wild tribe submitted to the authority of the government. The work of the army pushed the Red frontier back from the West to meet the East that the nation might stretch peacefully from ocean to ocean.
