Colonel James Norris, commander of the Frontier Regiment, established eighteen frontier posts. These posts were under the command of nine ranger captains and were supposed to provide a line of protection running from the Red River to the Rio Grande at what is now Eagle Pass. Each ranger captain commanded two posts: one was named for the commanding captain and the second would be named for either the location of the post or a distinguishing feature of the post.
