The Fredonian Rebellion Haden Edwards had permission to bring 800 families near Nacogodoches Haden Edwards (from Kentucky), empresario, had permission to bring 800 families near Nacogodoches. Edwards found settlers living on the land. He ordered them to show their land title or buy a new one from him. If not they would be thrown off land.

The Fredonian Rebellion The settlers were MAD and complained to government. Mexican government agreed with settlers and canceled Edwards’ land grant.

Result Edwards tried to lead a revolution. Benjamin Edwards (brother) claimed East Texas as Independent Republic of Fredonia. 1826 rode into Nacogdoches and adopted the Fredonian Declaration of Independence.

Results Most Texans (Tejanos and US settlers) opposed the Fredonian Rebellion. Stephen F. Austin called out militia. The rebels fled. Small event but attracted a lot of attention!

Old Stone Fort

Why the name Fredonian? Fredonia was name used in early America describing America as a place of freedom.

U.S. Interferes In 1826 President John Quincy Adams offered Mexico $1 million for Texas. Four years later President Andrew Jackson upped the offer to $5 million. Such offers angered Mexican officials and only increased their determination to hold onto Texas. US newspapers called it a revolt and blew it out of proportion. US wanted to buy Texas and made several offers. Mexico was offended! Suspected the US encouraged the Fredonian Rebellion. Mexico was worried about US interference and sent troops to East Texas.

Pair Share PREDICT: What do you think the Mexican government will do in response to the Rebellion?

Mier y Terán Report Mexico sent General Manuel de Mier y Terán to tour Texas and investigate conditions there. Mier y Terán began his tour in Laredo in 1828. Travled to San Antonio, San Felipe de Austin and Nacogdoches. Met with Stephen F. Austin and discussed the issues important to US settlers. SFA expressed his loyalty to Mexico.

Mier y Terán

Mier y Terán Reports to Mexico Anglo settlers influence in East Texas too strong. Anglo settlers out number Mexican settlers 10-1. Mexican government MUST act or lose Texas.

Mier y Terán Recommends Increase trade with Texas and Mexico so the Texans won’t trade with U.S. More soldiers sent to Texas Encourage more European and Mexican settlers to come to Texas
