Texas Constitutions 1824-1876 was made possible by two $20,000 TexTreasures grants from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. The first grant in 1999 enabled the Library to digitize and publish the historical Texas Constitutions. The second grant in 2002 funded the digitization and publication of Constitutional convention materials, as well as the creation of finding aids that facilitate better access to the Constitutions themselves.

Adams, Associate Director, and Paulette Delahoussaye for their assistance with the bibliographies and scanning.
