From the Annals of the Tejanos –  In 1832, San Antonio presented the Bexar Remonstrance to the legislature of Coahuila and Texas. The document was a list of grievances and was signed by José Ángel Navarro, alcalde of San Antonio. Among other things, it sought repeal of the ban on immigration from the United States contained in the Law of April 6, 1830.  It also sought tot make Texas a separate state from Coahuila.  We all know what happened next.
