IIRC, there were in 1836 about 3,000 Mexican Peninsulares, Criollos, Mestizos, and mission Indians in Texas. There were about 20,000 or so in California and the census undertaken in the 1790s indicates that population was not growing rapidly. The federal census in 1850 found 6,000 people in California who claimed to have been born there. The population of what is now New Mexico had a population of about 50,000 in 1845. The population of the rest of the territory in question was aboriginal, full stop.. BTW, my home town was incorporated in 1833 with a population of 14,000. The Mexican society in that part of the continent could have fit into five burgs along the Erie Canal.
I didn’t know Eva Longoria was here illegally….
Not known for her intelligence and wisdom, is she?
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo settled the border and paid Mexico $15 million.
Get over it, Eva. Poland lost Grodno and Lvov and in return, got some pieces of Germany that were once Polish to begin with. Oh, Poland lost 20% of its population. No sympathy from me.
A beautiful woman with a very challenged intellect, like so many in Hollywood.
The Shoshonean Comanches didn’t get to Texas until the 1700s, at which time they pushed out the predominant Apaches and other tribes. The eternal rhyme of human history.
In two words: “elite posturing.”
Longoria was born in Corpus Christy 50 years ago. She is not too bright. Her husband is a Mexican citizen. She may live in Spain a good part of the year
