Hello everyone,
Hope y’all doing great and that things are going smoothly.
I have a question: where did you guys get a certified copy of the original Constitution of Texas? Just downloaded it from the internet (e.g. Texas State Law Library https://www.sll.texas.gov/law-legislation/texas/constitution/ , but can it be considered ”certified”?)?
Also, I was noticing, although the Constitution still in force is the one enacted in 1876, it’s been amended countless times to this day, so to all intents and purposes, wouldn’t the document in its entirety become “post-1933” anyway? Unless we only consider the original document…

When I want a certified copy of a public record/document, I have gone to the county clerk and requested it. The clerk usually charges $20-$30. Depends on the amount of pages. And the County Clerk has authority to stamp it “Certified Copy”.
But if I pull a copy of something like that from the internet-this would not be “Certified”.
My research has found the same Constitution in the STATE OF TEXAS as the Republic of Texas.

Hey CJ,
Sorry for not replying to your massage earlier. Got stuck in the process with the double-authentication of my b.c. (I was born abroad) and only a few days ago was I able to get it done. Took me almost 7 months, and between that and other stuff I have been checking in with any groups for a while…
Yeah I was able to get a copy of the Texas Constitution from the Texas State Library shortly after I wrote that message in the group, but thank you very much anyway for your suggestion.
Hope your process is going more smoothly than mine lol…
