CENSUS RECORDS OF REYNOSA - ZAMORA
--------------------

Reinosa Vieja, Tamaulipas - Founding Families - (Founded 14 Mar 1749)

Of the 23 settlements established by Governor Escandon, Reynosa was
founded on March 14, 1749 with forty Spanish families (279 persons) from
Cerralvo, Cadereyta, El Pilon, Sabinas Pesqueria Grande, and Monterrey,
Nuevo Leon.  The city was founded by Captain Don Carlos Cantu.  Located
originally 15 miles east of Camargo, in 1802, due to constant floods, the
city was moved to its present location.

Nicolas Zamora and family were among the original settlers of Reynosa,
appearing on the first census in 1750, and again in 1753 and in 1757.
Nicolas resided there when he wrote his will in 1782.

.... As to fields, there is only the one which has been mentioned;
another one similar in its smallness that Nicolás Zamora has opened next
to this town; the one that the mission has opened at a distance of about
six leagues in which a little more than six measures of planted corn
should fit; up to now they have not been able to make a judgement of how
much each measure will produce since the plantings they have made have
not come to fruition, some years because of the lack of seasonal rains
and others because of the abundance of them with which they have become
"aguachinado" for which reason, and also that these settlers are not
normally inclined to farming, they have not applied themselves to opening
more fields although the land is suitable for it when the weather
cooperates."
