City of Odessa, Texas’ Post

September 12th: Houston Officially Introduced to the Public by the Allen Brothers On September 12, 1836, just a couple of weeks after the founding of Houston, the town was officially registered. On this date, the Allen brothers, Augustus and John Kirby Allen, placed an advertisement in the "Telegraph and Texas Register," a newspaper in the nearby town of Columbia. In the advertisement, they promoted the newly established city of Houston as an ideal location for settlement and business. The ad highlighted the town's strategic location on Buffalo Bayou, its potential as a commercial hub, and its accessibility via waterways, making it attractive to traders and settlers. This marked an important moment in the city's early development, as it formally introduced Houston to the broader public, setting the stage for its rapid growth and eventual role as a key city in Texas. #ThisDayInTexasHistory #TexasHistory #OnThisDay #TexasHeritage #TexasPride #HistoryOfTexas #TexasEvents #HistoricalTexas #TexasEducation #KnowYourHistory #TodayInHistory #TexasPast #HistoricTexas #LearnTexas #TexasTimeline #TexanHeritage #SouthwesternHistory #FamousTexans #TexasMemories #thedaughtreylawfirm #realestatelaw #mineral rights #probate #estateplanning #houstontexas #htown #learningmoment

That's why IM is more than just record-keeping! I’m excited about the Information Asset Register (IAR) Project! The project will involve collaborative work with all teams to address their information needs, which the IAR will include details such as storage location of information, format, ownership,retention period, etc, but will also emphasise on data governance aspects like access and security, risk assessment, and more. It will be a crucial reference for the entire organisation, potentially reduce costs (time spent) associated with legal discovery and FOI requests, reduce cost by minimising duplication and destroying data that no longer holds value,preserve assets of significant and historical value. Moreover, it will empower to make informed business decisions based on quality information assets.

Fun Weekend READ 📰: Texas seems to have the most unusual town names compared to any other state. Have you ever visited or lived in any of these quirky 🤠 Texas towns? Annie --- Perhaps through a combination of sheer size and pioneer spirit, Texas, of all the states, seems to feature the highest concentration of truly absurd town names. About a year ago, I made a categorized list of some of the best, with food (Oatmeal), states of mind (Uncertain), concepts (Utopia), things (Telephone), names of other cities and countries (Scotland), phrases (Jot ’Em Down), and, most important, guns (Cut and Shoot) and guys (Tom Bean) as the main groupings.  Turns out, many of the towns in categories other than “guys” are also just named after guys. Other monikers reveal titillating mishmashes of truth and lore and hint at the nature of the formation of early settlements. And still others show how the stunningly dull bureaucratic machinations of state entities (i.e., the U.S. Postal Service) led to forced (or accidental) creativity in nomenclature. On any Texas road trip longer than a couple of hours, you’re likely to run into at least one of these towns—or at least drive by the small green highway sign and few dilapidated structures that make up what’s left of one. Now you may regale your travel partners with a few fun facts about these places’ humble origins (and yes, that includes the origins of Humble, Texas). ...READ More... #Texas #Towns #Texans #Fun Hon.
