Answer 1

Answer:

c

Explanation:

In 1716 another Spanish expedition came to East Texas and reestablished the mission, this time on the east bank of the Neches River. But it was abandoned again in 1719, rebuilt again in 1721, and finally abandoned for good in 1731 when the mission was relocated to San Antonio and renamed San Francisco de la Espada.
