This study offers a descriptive account of the earliest Japanese immigrants and visitors in Texas during the period between the latter part of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century. This paper gives an overview of the early Japanese settlers and visitors by region, including Dallas, Houston, Galveston, San Antonio, the Rio Grande Valley, El Paso, and Austin. Further to a close examination of the published references, data includes fieldwork and interviews conducted by the author, and information obtained from the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) Institute of Texan Cultures and UTSA Special Collections. The findings bring to light new information on the entrepreneurial Dyo family who lived in El Paso in the early 20th century. The author introduces the earliest Japanese immigrant to Austin, second-generation Alan Yamato Taniguchi, who moved from the Rio Grande Valley in 1959 to start his career at the University of Texas, followed by second-generation Kaoru Dyo who became the first Japanese physician in Austin. The findings provide insights into the life experiences and socioeconomic attainments of Japanese immigrants to the United States. Future research supports the need to document the under-represented trajectory of Japanese Texans who now include fourth-generation Yonsei to preserve and provide a better understanding of the social changes recorded and experienced up to the present day.
