    Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County by Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker San Antonio, Texas March 2018 i i Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County By Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker Published by Paso de la Conquista San Antonio, Texas Mar. 2018 i Library of Congress Control Number: 2018934169 Published: Feb, 2018 San Antonio, Texas Copyright Pending. Outside Cover of Mission San José: public domain ii Introduction In 2015, San Antonio’s Tricentennial Commission created the opportunity for the citizens of San Antonio to rediscover their shared cultural heritage, history and to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of our beloved City in 1718. Collaboratives were formed with public institutions to further develop presentations commemorating our City’s history. Many months were spent on these projects and in the year 2018, they will be presented to the public in open venues. An out-come of this year’s celebration is this publication, “Tricentennial Chronology and The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County”. The last published chronology of San Antonio was in 1950 by Edward Hunsinger. For this new study, approximately 1½ years was spent developing additional details and entries of events in San Antonio’s 300-year history. Other chronologies were studied, books were referenced and honored historians were consulted. Every attempt was made to edit and re-edit the many editions of the chronology until this latest edition is being published.
