IMO, this article is mis-titled. It contains only one reference to a Christmas event during colonial days, and it wasn’t held in one of the colonies.
It’s been a while since I studied this, but IIRC, in general, Christmas wasn’t celebrated in the colonies. It was taught by many of the protestant preachers that it was not a Christian holiday.
That’s probably an over-generalization, but that’s my memory of what I’ve read.
In 1680, Texas would have been part of the Viceroyalty of New Spain, but I'm not sure it could be considered a "colony." For one thing, there were few, if any white settlers in the region, although settlement began in earnest in the area around what is now El Paso during the late seventeenth century.
