The Hispanic Heritage Center of Texas, in collaboration with Palo Alto College, Texas A&M University-San Antonio and city preservation officials, has launched a new history project called Legacy South that will study, archive and advance the story of San Antonio’s pioneering Spanish and Tejano ranching families dating to the 1700s.

Legacy South will focus on the 1750-1850 period and an approximately 200-square-mile area on both sides of the Medina River, said the center’s founder, Rudi Rodriguez.
