Old Three Hundred

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Old Three Hundred is a term used to describe the 297 grantees, made up of families and some partnerships of unmarried men, who purchased 307 parcels of land from Stephen Fuller Austin and established a colony in south Texas, along the Texas gulf coast area between the Colorado River and Brazos River and along the San Jacinto River, most titles being granted in 1824.
