Biographical Note

Beasley was a Bee County attorney whose avocation was the study of the Texas Gulf Coast and the protection of its waters and marine life; was Beeville's first mayor after incorporation in 1908 and who, in the 1960s, campaigned against the construction of a bypass around Beeville. As founder and sole member of the organization Independent Texas Coastal Research for the Common Good, he corresponded with elected officials, government agencies, marine biologists, sportsmen, and outdoor editors of major Texas newspapers espousing his causes. He wrote briefs in protest of applications for shell dredging permits and lobbied against all forms of commercial interests that he believed were detrimental to the ecosystems of the Gulf of Mexico. In the course of his work, he amassed this large collection of research materials, most of which he meticulously indexed.

Scope and Contents

Correspondence, notes, literary productions, reports, printed materials, maps, charts, tables, photographs, and clippings document John R. Beasley's interest in the Texas coast of the Gulf of Mexico and his advocacy for the protection of the environment and marine life of the area. Much of the material reflects his extensive campaign against oyster shell dredging operations in the Texas bays. Other materials are evidence of his collaboration with sport fishing enthusiasts against commercial fishing interests. His work for the National Seashore designation for Padre Island is documented by correspondence with Senator Ralph Yarborough, sponsor of the successful legislation, and other materials. Some personal papers such as reminiscences of fishing trips are included in the collection.


Organization
	Organized into two series: I. Indexes to research materials. II. Research materials.
	Research materials (II.) organized according to subjects and numbering system in correspondence indexes: 1. Work (general) files. 2. Mudshell (oyster shell dredging). 3. Desk files (general, highway bypass, active). 4. Dittos (mimeographs). 5. Clipboards (miscellaneous). 6. Library. 7. Pictures (photographs). 8. Maps.
	Original order maintained. Indexes are those that Beasley created for each group of materials. Finding aid reflects the numbering system and subject access of the indexes.


Arrangement
	Arrangement within files is chronological by type of material.
