Petition #11584015

Abstract

Free man of color Robert Thompson asks to remain in the Republic. He arrived in Texas in 1831 and, though he did not fight in 1836, he "furnished a valuable mare and rifle gun for the use of the Army of Texas." Thirty citizens consider Robert Thompson to be "a man of prudence and industry," and they are not aware of anything that "has been alleged against him to render him unworthy to remain in the Republic."

Result: "provided for by law".
