Texas Band of Yaqui Indians
The Texas Band of Yaqui Indians, also using Yaqui Nation of Texas, publishes its own account of community identity, family connections and cultural work. This guide places that voice beside a 2015 Texas Senate resolution. It is a starting route into the community’s published perspective, with migration, descent and legal-status questions kept separate.

Names & relationshipsThe publisher describes this community within the broader Yaqui/Yoeme context. Yaqui Nation of Texas is an alternate name for this same publisher/community, not another distinct people here. This route is separate from the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Arizona. The2015 Senate resolution is used as name evidence; federal status, jurisdiction and the specific migration/descent account are not established by this queued entry.

Backdrop photographs & credits
These photographs have individual, documented connections to this entry. Their captions and source records define the people, place, object, and period shown; no one photograph represents every community within a broader label.
The photographer’s Commons record identifies this as the Yaqui River in Sonora, Mexico and declares own work under CC BY-SA 3.0 (also offered under GFDL; this reuse selects CC BY-SA 3.0). The complete downloaded 4752×3168 frame and the identification/license/EXIF sections were inspected. The museum orientation and the 2016 Yaqui dictionary foreword provide the people-level Yaqui River/Sonora context. This is a modern river landscape, not a photograph of Texas Band members or proof of Indigenous territorial boundaries. It does not identify the cattle as belonging to Yaqui people. EXIF records June 4, 2009, but camera timestamps are not independent dating evidence. Web copy is proportionally resized/recompressed to 1800 × 1200, preserving the complete frame; card and backdrop use CSS crops/overlays. No content is generated, retouched or added. The photograph and resized derivative remain CC BY-SA 3.0; creator/source/license credit is retained. This visual review does not increase substantive source counts. The community publisher explicitly describes ancestral Sonora and relationships with Yaqui pueblos. Photograph is regional Sonora homeland context only, not Texas, community members, proof of genealogy or a territorial claim. Exact existing full-frame web derivative visually reinspected2026-10-27. Any card/backdrop CSS cropping and overlays are display treatments; the page image preserves the complete web frame.

Full photographs are displayed proportionally above. A translucent background copy may be cropped by the viewport; it does not replace the complete image or its record.
The visual treatment does not change the research status, evidence, or remaining gaps recorded in this profile.

A Texas community’s self-published perspective with a historical legislative naming record. The guide makes no new recognition, jurisdiction, descent or migration determination.
Begin with the publisher’s purposes and community-oriented cultural/educational account.
These are selected starting points. The full annotated collection, source perspectives, inspection limits and remaining research questions follow below. A starting guide is not an exhaustive history or community endorsement.
01
The community’s own account
The publisher describes connections with Yaqui communities in Sonora and uses Texas Band of Yaqui Indians and Yaqui Nation of Texas for the same community. Its mission emphasizes reconnecting families with heritage, educational opportunities and support for future generations. These self-descriptions provide a community perspective; they do not by themselves independently verify every historical or institutional claim.
Senate Resolution989 names and honors the Texas Band, and records adoption on May27,2015. Its historical recitals are the resolution’s statements. A commemorative legislative text should not be used alone to establish genealogical descent, federal recognition, jurisdiction or the details of migration. The original named source remains available so readers can examine what was actually said.
The mission describes networking, educational and arts-related aims. The credited Yaqui River photograph illustrates Sonora homeland context discussed by the publisher; it does not show Texas Band members, Texas community land or proof of descent. The broader Yaqui guide offers additional historical and language reading, while the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Arizona remains a distinct government route.
Corroborate particular Texas migration and family-history accounts through accessible original records.

Supporting identification does not establish complete history, legal status, territorial boundaries or community endorsement. A community-specific starting guide reuses selected earlier actual-content reviews with their original dates/scopes. It does not add new global works merely because a URL appears on this route. Picture identification/rights are separate from historical adequacy or community endorsement.
