Action of April 17, 1837
The Battle of the Brazos River〔http://www.texasnavy.com/quiz1.htm〕 was an engagement fought in the Brazos River on April 17, 1837, between the Mexican Navy and the Texas Navy.〔 〕
==Background==
Despite Houston's victory over Santa Anna's army at San Jacinto, Texans continued to fight a naval war in hopes of persuading the Mexican Government to agree to the independence of Texas. In May 1837, Texas Navy ship ''Independence'' prepared for another cruise to take United States diplomat William H. Wharton to Texas from New Orleans. ''Independence'' had smooth sailing for about seven days when on April 17 she encountered the Mexican brigs ''Vencedor del Álamo'' under Francisco López and the ''Libertador'', off the mouth of the Brazos River.〔
