Answer:

Option: d. The Canary Islanders

Step-by-step explanation:

Immigrants from the Spanish Canary Islands off the coast of Africa performed an essential part in San Antonio. Canary Islanders arrived in South Texas in 1731 with 16 families and founded San Fernando de Béxar. The early settlers faced many problems after arriving in Texas, including the distributions of land grants and riverine water. Their power began to decline beginning in 1845 with the annexation of Texas.
