Answer:

Antonio Margil de Jesus

Explanation:

Antonio Margil de Jesus was widely known for his missionary works in North America, particularly in Texas.

He was a Spanish missionary, who originally in 1717, established numerous missions in East Texas. However, as a result of Spanish friction with the French, he discontinued these missions and left for San Antonio.

At San Antonio, he ended in establishing missions that were popularly known as San Jose y San Miguel de Aguayo, and it is widely accepted as the most successful of all the Texas missions.
