In 1845, the Rio Grande was established as the border between Mexico and the U.S. state of Texas. The river has many meanders, which result in "fingers" of land that are nearly surrounded by territory of the other country, such as the Horcón Tract, a 413-acre (1.67 km 2) finger that was surrounded by the river (and Mexico) except for a narrow connection at its northeast end.
This transfer was made in exchange for the transfer from the United States to Mexico of other land, including five parcels near Presidio, the Horcón Tract (after 1906 located south of the Rio Grande), and Beaver Island (La Isla de Morteritos), located in the river south of Roma, Texas, comprising 481.68 acres (194.93 ha) in total.
