Answer: True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Irish immigrants fled famine and persecution in hopes of a new life of prosperity and freedom—and it was this hope that led many of them to Texas. Before Texas was a state, many Irish settlers set up ranches in what was then northern Mexico at the invitation of the Mexican government.
