Monclova

Temporarily a more northern outpost had been established in 1590 at Nuevo Almadn (now Monclova), but it was soon abandoned.

A colony was now established at thrice abandoned Almadn and later became Monclova.

Even the people of Monclova and Parras, despite their promises to be neutral, took up arms.

Possibly news of the restoration of the constitution had reached Monclova but not Santa Rosa.

By many Parras, a place of about the same size as Monclova, was called an Eden.
