Answer 1

D. He helped establish Corpus Christi in West Texas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Spanish military pioneer, colonizer, and frontier director José de Escandón was the chief legislative leader of Nuevo Santander, a Spanish territory in what is currently northeastern Mexico and southern Texas. He established numerous towns and missions in the Spanish settlement, principally in Rio.

Mier was established to be the focal settlement for a progression of ranchos that involved the land encompassing the town on the two sides of the stream. Thirty-eight families were raised from Cerralvo, Nuevo Leon, and joined 19 families as of now in the region.

Answer 2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A is wrong: He founded several missions but San Saba I cannot find.

C is wrong: I take it mapping of Texas was already completed in the 18th century and besides: Mister Escandon was everything but a Geographic genius.

D is wrong: The general was in constant dispute with the clergy, Jesuits and so on.
