    The Registro contains transcribed copies of all land titles and related documents for Austin’s first colony, including the title and plat of the town of San Felipe de Austin (pp. 16-18). It was made with the permission of the governor of Coahuila y Tejas to guard against loss or deterioration of original land records. Each of its over 600 pages was written by Stephen F. Austin’s secretary, Samuel May Williams.
