True Texian

The "True Texian" certificate is a honored award. A maximum of two can be issued per year and only by majority vote from the board of the Lone Star Chapter, after proper nomination.

To nominate someone for this award, please email us at truetexian@lonestarsrt.org.

You must be prepared to offer documented information as to why the individual should be given this high honor and nomination alone does not guarantee the individual or company will receive this honor.

The Lone Star chapter of the Sons of the Republic of Texas issues the "True Texian" certificate award. This award is issued to anyone in the community, member or non-member, private individual or company that has been duly nominated (see left). This individual or company has stood out among fellow citizens in promoting, protecting, or preserving Texas history.

This award is an 8 1/2" x 14" legal sized certificate printed on acid-free parchment paper that carries the official seal of the Lone Star chapter and is titled:

A True Texian

On a regular basis, the Lone Star Chapter discovers fantastic individuals or companies that continually take extra-ordinary actions to show their pride in the great State for which they live. They honor the bravery and sacrifices of those who provided the foundation for the nation of Texas. These Texians serve Texas with pleasure.

Just like the heroes of the Alamo dramatized so eloquently in death, as they saved Texas by standing at the gates with nothing to offer but their lives. These individuals or companies continue to offer the best they have for the cause of Texas.
