Moses Austin
Moses Austin and Stephen F. Austin were not brothers. Stephen F. Austin was Mose's Austin son.
Baron de Bastrop's friendship with Governor Martinez was important to Moses Austin because they helped secure a land grant in Louisiana for Austin's plan to establish a colony of American settlers in Texas. Governor Martinez supported the settlement plan and mediated the initial negotiations between Austin and the Spanish government. Bastrop's influence and connections with Spanish officials helped facilitate the approval of the land grant.
Stephen F. Austin came to Texas instead of his father, Moses Austin, primarily due to Moses's death in 1821, shortly after receiving a land grant from the Spanish government. As the executor of his father's plans, Stephen took on the responsibility of leading the colonization effort. Additionally, he was motivated by a desire to fulfill his father's vision and establish a prosperous settlement in Texas, which was seen as a promising opportunity for land and economic growth.
