I didn’t know that much of New mexico was every considered to be Texas. I thought that Santa Fe was the center of government, power, and trade, under Spain and Mexico and that Nueuvo Mexico was always considered to be a terrory in of it’s own right.

I believe that there was a map attached to the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo [Map] that shows the eatern part of New Mexico as Texas. Treaties are the law of the land, of course.
