February 1828 CE

Stephen F. Austin, seeking to establish Freemasonry in Texas, calls a meeting of Freemasons at San Felipe on February 11 for the purpose of electing officers and petitioning the Masonic Grand Lodge in Mexico City for a charter to form a lodge.

Austin is elected Worshipful Master of the new lodge.

Although the petition reaches Matamoros, and is to be forwarded to Mexico City, nothing more is heard of it.
