Question

How did Juan Seguin contribute to the fight for Texas independence?

Answer 1

Option D, He commanded the Tejano Company at the Battle of San Jacinto.

Explanation:

Juan Seguin knew both the adoration of a Texan hero and the pain of a Tejano, who had to live with his ex-enemies, in a life-extending across both ends of the Rio Grande.

In 1806, Seguin was born into a long-standing San Antonio Tejano family. No specifics of his early lives are available, but Santa Anna's concentration of power in Mexico throughout the 1830's he was fiercely a Radical critic. Seguin's father was Stephen F. Austin's strong political ally and Seguin played an active part in the Texas rebellion.

As a preliminary governor of San Antonio in 1835, he ruled against the Sant'Anna army with a group among like-minded Tejanos. Over the next year for the very first half of the siege, he had been in the Alamo, where he survived only by being sent to receive reinforcements. In the battle of San Jacinto, he and his company of Tejano fought to beat the army in Santa Anna.
