Mapa de los Estados Unidos de Méjico, Segun lo organizado y definido por las varias actas del Congreso de dicha Republica: y construido por las mejores autoridades, 1847
Notable features in Texas include the towns of San Antonio de Bejar, Matagorda, Nacogdoches, the missions of San Saba and La Bahia, various forts, including El Paso, and Indian settlements indicated by tipis. The Neches, Colorado, Trinity, Guadalupe, San Marcos, Brazos, Nueces, and Rio del Norte (the Rio Grande) Rivers, and other smaller streams are all labeled on the map.

The disputed boundaries between Mexico and Texas, the Nueces River and the Rio Grande, are shown in yellow.

The wartime route of General Zachary Taylor’s forces from their base at Corpus Christi into Mexico is highlighted in red. Taylor established Ft. Brown opposite Matamoros and earned victories in the Battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma, labeled on the map, before advancing into Mexico and taking the city of Monterrey.[3] Insets in the Gulf of Mexico include a plan of the city of Monterrey and the battlegrounds of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma.

Conflicting boundary claims between Texas and Mexico are noted. The Nueces River is highlighted as the “Original Boundary of Texas in 1835,” while the Rio Grande is described as the “Boundary as claimed by the United States.” The map shows Texas’s territorial claim extending north into present-day Wyoming and west into present-day New Mexico.
