San Augustine, Texas: Saint Augustine Catholic Church

About San Augustine, Texas:

The first European settlement in the area began in 1717 with the establishment of Mission Nuestra Señora de los Dolores de los Ais by Spanish missionaries. The mission was abandoned and re-established in 1721. It lasted until 1773 and is now preserved as Mission Dolores State Historic Site, a 36-acre historic site. The town began in 1832 with land owned by Thomas S. McFarland. The town was named after the Presidio de San Agustín de Ahumada, which itself had been named in honor of the Viceroy of New Spain , Don Agustín de Ahumada y Villalón (New Spain included the area that eventually became the U.S. state of Texas).
