FAQ
On October 2, 1835, the growing tensions between Mexico and Texas erupt into violence when Mexican soldiers attempt to disarm the people of Gonzales, sparking the Texan war for independence.
It was a revolution that Texas would eventually win. One of the greatest helps to the Texan cause was Santa Anna, the Mexican president, who provided the cause for revolution, stirred up the Texans' anger and zeal, and caused the Texans to win the final battle at San Jacinto.
Moore said that they were fighting to keep their cannon and to uphold the Mexican federal Constitution of 1824. He invited the Mexicans to give up and join the revolution. When Castaneda refused, the Texans attacked again. After a brief fight, the Mexicans rode back to San Antonio.
This small skirmish would have much larger consequences, as it is considered to be the first battle of Texas' War of Independence from Mexico. For this reason, the fight at Gonzales is sometimes called "the Lexington of Texas," referring to the place that saw the first fighting of the American Revolutionary War.
Texas Revolution (18351836) La Villita, San Antonio Cos was appointed commander of military forces in Texas in July 1835 and was sent there to disarm any rebellious citizens. He arrived in Texas on September 21, 1835 with 300 soldiers.
Led by General Samuel Houston, the Texan Army engaged and defeated General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna's Mexican army in a fight that lasted just 18 minutes. A detailed, first-hand account of the battle was written by General Houston from the headquarters of the Texan Army in San Jacinto on April 25, 1836.
In fact, he returned to the Alamo in 1836 alongside General Santa Annahis brother-in-lawand led some of Santa Anna's forces in the assault.
Surrender terms signed by General Cos and General Burleson at San Antonio, December 11, 1835 TSLAC.
His demands were resisted; a force of Texans under Stephen F. Austin and Edward Burleson held the Mexican troops in the siege of Bexar until Cos surrendered after an attack led by Benjamin R. Milam in December 1835. Cos and his men were released on their pledge not to oppose further the Constitution of 1824.
The most immediate cause of the Texas Revolution was the refusal of many Texas, both Anglo and Mexican, to accept the governmental changes mandated by "Siete Leyes" which placed almost total power in the hands of the Mexican national government and Santa Anna.
