∙ 13y agoMoses Austin made a deal with the Spanish Governor that if they converted to the Catholic religion and were law-abiding citizens they could settle Texas. When Moses Austin dies his son Stephen F. Austin will carry out his father's dying wish to settle Texas. Austin then brings in 300 families, which will later be called "The Old Three Hundred."
Since Stephen F. Austin is the first to settle Texas he is given the name, "The Father of Texas."
