Notes for FELICIANA GOSEASCOCHEA-DE-LA-GARZA:

RANCHO VIEJO, TEXAS. Rancho Viejo is a town on U.S. highways 77 and 83 four miles northwest of Brownsville in south central Cameron County. The first settlement in the area developed when Don José Salvador de la Garza and his wife Dona María Gertrudis de la Garza Falcón moved to the site of what is now Rancho Viejo around 1770. There they founded the ranches Espíritu Santo and El Tanque, later known as El Rancho Viejo. About 1772 de la Garza petitioned for the land he and his wife had settled; they were not officially granted the land until 1779, when it was given to them as the Potrero del Espíritu Santo land grant (261,275 acres). The long wait was due to a suit filed by Don José Narciso Cavazos, who claimed the land as his. The de la Garza family took possession of the land in 1781, when a $10 per league fee had been established as an appropriate price for it. Not long after officially receiving title to the land, José Salvador de la Garza died, leaving his property to his wife and three children. De la Garza's heirs maintained ownership of the land from the time of his death in 1781 to 1848, when Feliciana Goseascochea de Tijerina sold 500 acres to James Grogan. Starting in 1877 the Espíritu Santo land grant changed ownership several times through family ties and sales. In 1968 Bill Bass purchased 280 acres to develop the Rancho Viejo Resort and Country Club. Bass filed for bankruptcy in 1976, and in 1977 the country club became the property of the Pittsburgh National Bank, which on December 28, 1978, sold it to Rancho Viejo, Incorporated. The largest stockholder in that group was Ted Trapp. By then a community had developed around the Rancho Viejo Country Club. In 1980 the community voted ninety-six to thirty-two to incorporate. Its population at that time consisted of residents of the country club and included mostly wealthy retirees and professionals. In 1983 the estimated population of Rancho Viejo was 275; it increased to 750 by 1986. The population was 893 in 1990. Around that time the community regularly experienced an estimated 30 percent population increase each winter, when "Winter Texans"-residents of colder northern climates-made Rancho Viejo their home. Another population surge was seen each summer, when Mexican nationals visited their summer homes at the resort. In the early 1990s the community had one convenience store, and local children attended school within Los Fresnos Independent School District or Brownsville Consolidated School District. Reportedly the population of Rancho Viejo had reached about 1,200 by 1992.

Juan Nepomuceno Cortina G., (1824-1894). Militar y Político. Nació en Camargo, Tamaulipas. Durante la guerra de intervención americana se incorporó al ejército de Arista y participó en las primeras acciones militares de 1846 en Palo Alto y Resaca de Palma. Vivió durante algunos años en Brownsville, Texas donde en julio de 1895 mató a un policía teniendo que refugiarse en el rancho Santa Rita, propiedad de su madre. Los días 28 y 29 de septiembre de 1859 ocupó la ciudad de Brownsville con su gente, derrotó a los "rangers" y fue hasta mediados de diciembre del mismo año cuando tropas federales americanas batieron las fuerzas de "Cheno", que así se le conocía, obligándolas a cruzar el río Bravo hacia México. En 1860 se unió Cortina a las fuerzas del general José María Carvajal y cuando se inició la intervención francesa se incorporó a la defensa nacional, participando en diversas guerrillas, acciones y combates en Puebla y en Tamaulipas. Del 26 de septiembre de 1864 al 17 de abril de 1865 se pasó a las filas imperialistas para reincorporarse después a la república y participar activamente en los sitios de México y Querétaro. Del 12 de enero de 1864 al 26 de septiembre del mismo año fue gobernador de Tamaulipas y volvió a gobernar el Estado desde fines de 1865 hasta marzo de 1866. Se adhirió al Plan de Tuxtepec. En Mayo de 1877 fue procesado, recluido primero en la prisión militar de Santiago Tlatelolco y finalmente, hasta que murió, se le dio el beneficio de la reclusión domiciliaria. Su carrera militar la inició como soldado raso reconociéndosele como general de brigada en 1864 con ratificación en 1870. Fue un personaje pintoresco y popular distinguiéndose por su valentía y arrojo. Murió en Atzcapozalco, Distrito Federal. (Torrea, Juan Manuel: D.G.H.B. y E.: Canales, J. T.: Juan N. Cortina presents his motion for a new trial; Zorrilla, Juan Fidel: G.O. y R.).

Juan B. Tijerina nació el 24 de Junio de 1857 en la Heroica Matamoros, Tamaulipas en el seno de una familia modesta formada por Don Miguel Tijerina y Doña Dolores Villarreal de Tijerina. Realizó sus estudios primarios en su ciudad natal para continuarlos en el Instituto Literario San Juan. En Matamoros inició su carrera de maestro para integrarse más tarde a la Escuela Normal del estado donde impartió las cátedras de Gramática y Literatura. Fue Diputado al Congreso Estatal pero cuando el General Díaz intentó modificar la Constitución para coartar la libertad de prensa, el Profr. Tijerina fue el único en toda la república que se opuso a esa enmienda; estuvo a punto de ser Diputado al Congreso de la Unión mediante una curul que le ofreció el gobierno porfirista pero pronunció en Matamoros un bien fundamentado discurso contra el régimen por lo que fue perseguido y obligado a expatriarse a San Antonio, Texas. Allí fundó el periódico La Libertad en cuyas páginas publicó artículos muy violentos contra la Dictadura. al regresar a Nuevo Laredo, fue aprehendido y encarcelado por órdenes del general Bernardo Reyes, gobernador de Nuevo León. Cuando era trasladado a Monterrey, intervino Don Guadalupe Mainero y lo salvó de la ley fuga, a la cual lo pretendían someter.

Durante el gobierno del citado gobernador, fue electo Diputado al Congreso Local y nombrado Director de la Escuela Municipal. Fundó en Ciudad Victoria el semanario El Progresista en el que sostuvo polémicas con el sabio matemático Manuel María Contreras primero y después con Vargas Vila, Santos Chocano, Julio Flores, Rubén Darío y Amado Nervo. Fue maestro de la Escuela Normal y Preparatoria de Ciudad Victoria, siendo de numerosas generaciones que lo recuerdan con respeto y admiración.
