  5. In 1682 Spanish friars founded the mission of Corpus Christi de la Ysleta near present-day El Paso. During the 1690s Spain concentrated on building missions, presidios, and towns in eastern Texas, near Louisiana. First Mission in Texas

  6. The French established colonies throughout the Mississippi Valley several years after La Salle’s venture in the 1680s. French traders won Native Americans’ friendship and made large profits trading. To prevent France from taking Texas, the Spanish viceroy ordered new missions to be built in East Texas, and trade between the Spanish and French was stopped. French threaten to take Texas

  9. In 1719 war broke out between Spain and France. French soldiers seized the Spanish mission near Nacogdoches. In the spring of 1721, a Spanish leader led a large group of soldiers and settlers into East Texas and reestablished the abandoned missions. The Spanish and French peacefully accepted a small stream between Los Adaes and Natchitoches as a boundary. Spain and France go to War

  11. Native American people lived close to the missions, and friars worked to teach them the Spanish way of life. Friars gave gifts to attract them, and sometimes the Spaniards used force to get Native Americans to settle nearby. After prayers and breakfast, Native American children at the missions attended school and received religious instruction. Life at the Missions

  12. Women made clothes, pottery, and cooked, while the men worked in the fields or did Carpentry or Blacksmithing.

Most Native Americans, however, refused to stay at the missions and to abandon their traditional way of life. Life in the Missions (cont)
