Seth Barton was born in Virginia and moved to Tuscaloosa in 1821. He was elected to the Legislature in 1825 by the deciding vote of the sheriff, Hiram Cochrane. The contestants were Barton, Henry W. Collier, and William H. Jack. When the votes. were counted, it was found that all three candidates had the same number of votes. Barton was defeated for Congress in 1829 by Baylor and moved to New Orleans the next year. William R. Smith says that Barton was aristocratic and "held himself quite aloof from the vulgar populace," that "when he played a game it was to win."

Council History - Alamo Area Council

Scouting America, Alamo Area Council, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS

The first Scout troop organized in San Antonio was effected October 7, 1910, with George S. Chessum the scoutmaster. At the time, Chessum was the director of the YMCA and that organization sponsored the troop.

This was just a few months after Scouting was brought to the United States from England, where Baden-Powelllaunched the boy movement two years before. Thus, it is quite probable that Chessum and his troop were the first in Texas and what is today our South Central Region.

Our council also appears to have been the first one organized in Texas and our South Central Region.
