Arthur Swift

Arthur Swift (December 17, 1810 – April 13, 1855) was a 19th-century Texas merchant, surveyor, political and military figure. He, along with Rangers Mathew Caldwell, and James Campbell, were founders of Seguin, Texas. He participated in the Texas–Indian wars. He served as a member of the Texas House of Representatives from the Gonzales district in the First Texas Legislature. After Guadalupe County was established with his hometown of Seguin as the county seat, Swift used his influence with the county commissioners to move the route of a planned road from Seguin to San Antonio.
