| 205 | Died in the Battle of Valesco The Battle of Velasco, fought June 25? 26, 1832, was the first true military conflict between Mexico and settlers in Texas. It began when Texan insurgents attacked Fort Velasco, located in what was then Velasco and what is now the present day city of Surfside Beach. The Mexican commander during the conflict, Domingo de Ugartechea, tried to stop the Texians, under John Austin, from transporting a cannon up the Brazos River to attack the city of Anahuac. The Texian militia eventually prevailed over the Mexicans when Ugartechea surrendered after a two-day battle, once he realized he would not be receiving reinforcements, and his soldiers had run out of ammunition. | Castleman, Andrew (I518)

| 245 | Francis West (b. 1586 ? d. 1633/34) was a Deputy Governor of the Colony of Virginia. Early and family life Born in Salisbury, Wiltshire[citation needed] on 28 October 1586, West was one of four sons of Thomas West, 2nd Baron De La Warr (1556? 1602) of Wherwell Abbey in Hampshire and his wife, Anne Knollys who made their fortunes in the Virginia colony. His elder brother, Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr (1577? 1618), served as a governor of the Virginia Company of London from 1610? 1611. His younger brother, John West (1590-ca 1659), served as Acting Governor of Virginia from 1635? 1637. A fourth brother, Nathaniel West, died in Virginia in August 1623, aged 30. Career Francis West was one of the distinguished passengers on Captain Christopher Newport's third voyage to Jamestown, Virginia, aboard the Mary and Margaret, which arrived in the summer of 1608.[citation needed] Newport returned to London with a load of iron ore sold to the East India Company.[1] Francis West was selected to the Governor's Council in 1609, and remained such for the rest of his life, although he returned to England many times and the colony's private charter was superseded by a royal charter in 1624 (two years after attacks by native Americans killed many settlers).[2] In November 1609, West used the ship Swallow to trade with the nearby Patawomeck people. During the incident, West and his crew killed several native people and took away corn and grain.[3] Instead of returning to the suffering Jamestown, West and his crew set sail for England. On their journey home they met the supply mission of Francis's brother, Thomas West, in the Azores.[4] Francis West returned to Jamestown on the Mary and Margaret in 1610. The colony had been suffering from lack of provisions, and the colonists elected West as their "President" in the absence of Sir Thomas Gates or other high official of the London Company, although the following year they elected George Percy to that position.[5] From 1612 to 1617 West was the Commandant of Jamestown.[6] From July 30 through August 4, 1619, based on his position on the Governor's Council, West served in what would later become the upper house of the Virginia General Assembly, although he was not listed as one of the elected burgesses in Jamestown's first Legislative Assembly.[7] In 1622 Captain West was appointed Admiral to New England, where he served alongside Capt. Christopher Levett, Governor of Plymouth, on a three-man council under Capt. Robert Gorges, named Governor General of the Plymouth Council for New England's venture in Massachusetts.[8][9] West subsequently served as Deputy Governor of Virginia from 17 November 1627 to 5 March 1629.[6] He also served as Captain General of Virginia. Personal life Coat of Arms of Francis West West married three times. His first wife, Margaret Whitney, whom he married circa 16?5, was a three-time widow lastly married to Edward Blayney, and who died within two years. In March 1627 West remarried, to the widow of Governor George Yeardley, Temperance Flowerdew. She died in December of the same year, and West unsuccessfully litigated against the former Governor's orphaned children for possession of her estate.[10] He married thirdly Jane Davye. He had one son, Francis West in 16??. In 1632, his estate was in Elizabeth City, south of the land of James Knott. Death and legacy According to some records, he died in February 1633/1634, although this is not certain. However, two years later, fellow colonists "thrusting out" royal governor Governor Sir John Harvey selected his brother, John West, who had previously served as a burgess, as the temporary replacement. | West, Francis Governor of the Virginia Colony (I23218)
