There are (were) several missions bearing the name "San Jose".

The one in San Antonio, Texas, was founded in 1720 (two years after The Alamo) by Fray Antonio Margil de Jesus and local, mission Indians.

However, prior to the one in San Antonio, there was more than one mission in east Texas (where Friar Margil had been previously) bearing the same name, but time & weather had destroyed them.
