Transcript of Visconti t 4
My Time in Austin’s Colony
By Taylor Visconti
My Journey
• Austin’s colony is the best. We left New Orleans because of the panic. We came on the a ship called the Lively. It was a fun and exiting trip here. It was also very colorful.
My Arrival
• I was willing to become a catholic and become a Mexican Citizen. I was hard working and honest. That’s what it took to live in Austin’s Colony.
1822
• This was probably the worst winter we had. There was still lumber everywhere and it was miserably cold. Many of us died but may of us survived.
1822
• Since it was so cold, the cattle died and we had no meat. The crops also wouldn’t grow so it was very difficult to eat.
1823
This was a better year for us. It was awful though because the Lively sank. We also had a dispute with the mexicans over cotton. The building slowed down because the ship sank.
1823
• It was a mild winter which was good so the cattle and crops could grow.
1824
• This year could have been better. We thrived for the Bumper cotton crop.
1824
• There also was a high demand for beef and there was lots of building.
My town
• I ended up being very well off and had lots of money. I also have extra money to save.
My conclusion
• I was really glad that I moved my family to Austin’s Colony. I know that my family is safe and taken care of.
