He was one of the heroes of the Texas revolution, fighting on the side of the Texans despite his being from a prominent Tejano family and an upstanding Mexican citizen. He survived the Alamo because he was sent out for reinforcements after the first siege. Later he was a Senator, the Mayor of San Antonio, Bexar County Justice of the Peace, and Wilson County Judge. He eventually left Texas because of the duality of his citizenship rather than his heroism during and after the revolution. The Texas town of Seguin, near San Antonio, is named after him. A large monument depicting him in his glory days now stands in the Seguin Central Park.
