Between 1779 and 1783 several Spanish troops provided aid to the Americans in their fight against the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War One more notable case was Jorge Farragut the Spanish lieutenant of the South Carolina Navy He settled in Mississippi and was the son David Farragut who excelled in the American Civil War Many Hispanics and Latinos emigrated to British colonies in the eighteen century In the early nineteenth century there was an influx of Spanish and Honduran immigrants to the United States due to civil unrest and war in their native countries
According to the United States Census of 1790 which was the first census of the whole United States there were 20000 people of Hispanic and Latino origin living in the former British colonies in that year
The Hispanic Experience in the Civil WarThe Civil War was fought by social and ethnic groups of all kinds One of the largest ethnic groups that are often overlooked in the conflict is the Hispanic population Heavily concentrated in Florida Louisiana and the areas north of Mexico Hispanics played a large role in the Civil War Most of these Hispanics lived inside the United States and most of them sided with the Confederacy during the war since they belonged to states that seceded In fact one of the more famous Confederate units the Louisiana Tigers was formed from Hispanic and Creole soldiers from the New Orleans area
Thatrsquos not to say that all the Hispanics joined the Confederacy Many Hispanics lived in southern California which stayed loyal to the Union and many more in the areas of modern day New Mexico and Arizona which were then part of the territory of New Mexico These Hispanics were heavily divided between North and South Many Hispanics in these areas used to be Mexican and were still bitter with the United States for the Mexican-American War and therefore sided with the Confederates On the other hand slavery had been abolished in Mexico and many Hispanics had no desire to become part of a nation that allowed it The result was a lot of split loyalties and fierce fighting among the peoples in New Mexico

Between 1779 and 1783 several Spanish troops provided aid to the Americans in their fight against the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War One more notable case was Jorge Farragut the Spanish lieutenant of the South Carolina Navy He settled in Mississippi and was the son David Farragut who excelled in the American Civil War Many Hispanics and Latinos emigrated to British colonies in the eighteen century In the early nineteenth century there was an influx of Spanish and Honduran immigrants to the United States due to civil unrest and war in their native countries
According to the United States Census of 1790 which was the first census of the whole United States there were 20000 people of Hispanic and Latino origin living in the former British colonies in that year
The Hispanic Experience in the Civil WarThe Civil War was fought by social and ethnic groups of all kinds One of the largest ethnic groups that are often overlooked in the conflict is the Hispanic population Heavily concentrated in Florida Louisiana and the areas north of Mexico Hispanics played a large role in the Civil War Most of these Hispanics lived inside the United States and most of them sided with the Confederacy during the war since they belonged to states that seceded In fact one of the more famous Confederate units the Louisiana Tigers was formed from Hispanic and Creole soldiers from the New Orleans area
Thatrsquos not to say that all the Hispanics joined the Confederacy Many Hispanics lived in southern California which stayed loyal to the Union and many more in the areas of modern day New Mexico and Arizona which were then part of the territory of New Mexico These Hispanics were heavily divided between North and South Many Hispanics in these areas used to be Mexican and were still bitter with the United States for the Mexican-American War and therefore sided with the Confederates On the other hand slavery had been abolished in Mexico and many Hispanics had no desire to become part of a nation that allowed it The result was a lot of split loyalties and fierce fighting among the peoples in New Mexico

Between 1779 and 1783 several Spanish troops provided aid to the Americans in their fight against the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War One more notable case was Jorge Farragut the Spanish lieutenant of the South Carolina Navy He settled in Mississippi and was the son David Farragut who excelled in the American Civil War Many Hispanics and Latinos emigrated to British colonies in the eighteen century In the early nineteenth century there was an influx of Spanish and Honduran immigrants to the United States due to civil unrest and war in their native countries
According to the United States Census of 1790 which was the first census of the whole United States there were 20000 people of Hispanic and Latino origin living in the former British colonies in that year
The Hispanic Experience in the Civil WarThe Civil War was fought by social and ethnic groups of all kinds One of the largest ethnic groups that are often overlooked in the conflict is the Hispanic population Heavily concentrated in Florida Louisiana and the areas north of Mexico Hispanics played a large role in the Civil War Most of these Hispanics lived inside the United States and most of them sided with the Confederacy during the war since they belonged to states that seceded In fact one of the more famous Confederate units the Louisiana Tigers was formed from Hispanic and Creole soldiers from the New Orleans area
Thatrsquos not to say that all the Hispanics joined the Confederacy Many Hispanics lived in southern California which stayed loyal to the Union and many more in the areas of modern day New Mexico and Arizona which were then part of the territory of New Mexico These Hispanics were heavily divided between North and South Many Hispanics in these areas used to be Mexican and were still bitter with the United States for the Mexican-American War and therefore sided with the Confederates On the other hand slavery had been abolished in Mexico and many Hispanics had no desire to become part of a nation that allowed it The result was a lot of split loyalties and fierce fighting among the peoples in New Mexico

Between 1779 and 1783 several Spanish troops provided aid to the Americans in their fight against the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War One more notable case was Jorge Farragut the Spanish lieutenant of the South Carolina Navy He settled in Mississippi and was the son David Farragut who excelled in the American Civil War Many Hispanics and Latinos emigrated to British colonies in the eighteen century In the early nineteenth century there was an influx of Spanish and Honduran immigrants to the United States due to civil unrest and war in their native countries
According to the United States Census of 1790 which was the first census of the whole United States there were 20000 people of Hispanic and Latino origin living in the former British colonies in that year
The Hispanic Experience in the Civil WarThe Civil War was fought by social and ethnic groups of all kinds One of the largest ethnic groups that are often overlooked in the conflict is the Hispanic population Heavily concentrated in Florida Louisiana and the areas north of Mexico Hispanics played a large role in the Civil War Most of these Hispanics lived inside the United States and most of them sided with the Confederacy during the war since they belonged to states that seceded In fact one of the more famous Confederate units the Louisiana Tigers was formed from Hispanic and Creole soldiers from the New Orleans area
Thatrsquos not to say that all the Hispanics joined the Confederacy Many Hispanics lived in southern California which stayed loyal to the Union and many more in the areas of modern day New Mexico and Arizona which were then part of the territory of New Mexico These Hispanics were heavily divided between North and South Many Hispanics in these areas used to be Mexican and were still bitter with the United States for the Mexican-American War and therefore sided with the Confederates On the other hand slavery had been abolished in Mexico and many Hispanics had no desire to become part of a nation that allowed it The result was a lot of split loyalties and fierce fighting among the peoples in New Mexico

Between 1779 and 1783 several Spanish troops provided aid to the Americans in their fight against the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War One more notable case was Jorge Farragut the Spanish lieutenant of the South Carolina Navy He settled in Mississippi and was the son David Farragut who excelled in the American Civil War Many Hispanics and Latinos emigrated to British colonies in the eighteen century In the early nineteenth century there was an influx of Spanish and Honduran immigrants to the United States due to civil unrest and war in their native countries
According to the United States Census of 1790 which was the first census of the whole United States there were 20000 people of Hispanic and Latino origin living in the former British colonies in that year
The Hispanic Experience in the Civil WarThe Civil War was fought by social and ethnic groups of all kinds One of the largest ethnic groups that are often overlooked in the conflict is the Hispanic population Heavily concentrated in Florida Louisiana and the areas north of Mexico Hispanics played a large role in the Civil War Most of these Hispanics lived inside the United States and most of them sided with the Confederacy during the war since they belonged to states that seceded In fact one of the more famous Confederate units the Louisiana Tigers was formed from Hispanic and Creole soldiers from the New Orleans area
Thatrsquos not to say that all the Hispanics joined the Confederacy Many Hispanics lived in southern California which stayed loyal to the Union and many more in the areas of modern day New Mexico and Arizona which were then part of the territory of New Mexico These Hispanics were heavily divided between North and South Many Hispanics in these areas used to be Mexican and were still bitter with the United States for the Mexican-American War and therefore sided with the Confederates On the other hand slavery had been abolished in Mexico and many Hispanics had no desire to become part of a nation that allowed it The result was a lot of split loyalties and fierce fighting among the peoples in New Mexico
