On June 13, 1832, Anglo-American settlers were involved in a conflict with Mexican commanderJohn Davis Bradburn at the posting of Anahuac, Texas, near the north extent of Galveston Bay. The settlers were opposed to control of their daily affairs by the centralist government. They were primarily at odds with the administration over the subject of tariffs on imports/exports and also over the presence of conscripted criminals in the Mexican garrison, whom the colonists blamed for a number of local crimes. The simmering conflict reached a head when Bradburn took in two escaped slaves from Louisiana. Though slavery was officially illegal in Mexico at the time, the Mexican authorities wanted to encourage Anglo-American colonization of the frontier and generally ignored the presence of blackindentured servants among the colonists. Two local lawyers, William B. Travis and Patrick C. Jack, attempted to secure the release of these slaves and were arrested by Bradburn.[1]
The Anglo militia skirmished with Bradburn's troops before retreating north to the crossing on Turtle Bayou near James Taylor White's ranch house to await the arrival of artillery.
The settlers received word that the anti-administration Federalist army had won a significant victory under the leadership of Antonio López de Santa Anna.
The Turtle Bayou Resolutions (1832) qualify as such.

The Turtle Bayou Resolutions were signed by a group of Texas settlers including William B. Travis and Sam Houston. The resolutions expressed their support for General Santa Anna but not the Mexican government's shift towards centralized control.
I honestly have no clue sorrry!!):
The Turtle Bayou Resolutions, adopted in June 1832, were a response to increasing tensions between Texan settlers and the Mexican government. The resolutions asserted the Texan colonists' loyalty to Mexico while also expressing their grievances, particularly against the Mexican military's actions. This set the stage for the Texas Revolution by galvanizing support among colonists for a more assertive stance against the Mexican authorities, ultimately leading to calls for independence and the formal declaration of the Texas Revolution in 1835. Thus, the Turtle Bayou Resolutions played a crucial role in uniting Texan settlers around the cause of independence.
The Turtle Bayou Resolutions, adopted in 1832 by Texian settlers, expressed support for the Federalists in Mexico because they aligned with the settlers' desire for greater autonomy and local governance. The resolutions were a response to the increasingly centralized authority of the Mexican government under President Santa Anna, which the settlers opposed. By backing the Federalists, who sought to restore the 1824 Constitution and decentralized government, the Texians aimed to protect their rights and interests within the Mexican federation. This support ultimately contributed to the growing tensions that led to the Texas Revolution.
