This book is about the Early Settlers of Mier, Tamaulipas, Mexico and Their Descendants. In the 1757 census of Mier, an additional twenty-two families are listed along the original nineteen founding families of 1753. This book is about those twenty-two families and their descendants

After I published The Founding Families of Meir, Tamaulipas and Their Descendants I got the idea to do the same with the families that had arrived by 1757 and that were listed in that census. In total forty-one families were listed in the census of that year.

After I removed the families that arrived in 1753 I was left with twenty-two families. Those families are the focus of this book.

This book is a start on documenting those early settlers that arrived in Mier between the census of 1753 and 1757. This new book is 466 page and there is still a ton of further research that has to be done. There were some families that I could not find anything for, but I still listed them in the book since I felt that it would have had not been right no to list them. Hopefully, as future editions are published more information on them will be listed.

Please note that an attempt was done to not list living people so please don’t expect to find descendants of theirs that are still living. Also if your family branches or ancestors are not listed it is because I have no information on them. If you would like for them to be included in future editions of this book send me their information so that I can research them and include them.
