View Power-Hewetson Historical Map in a larger map
This historical map shows all the historical markers, monuments, cemeteries, and a museum, that relate to the Power-Hewetson Irish colonists. Only two of the historical markers mention the colonists as Irish immigrants. The rest of the markers and monuments commemorate the colonists as Texans that participated in the Texas Revolution. The map also lists hotels, gas stations, and restaurants. Other relevant locations for anyone interested in researching the Power-Hewetson Colony include the Texas State Library and Archives Commission and the Texas General Land Office, both in Austin, TX. These places are not marked on the map because of their distance from Refugio and Aransas counties.
