The word "Aransas" comes from the Virgin of Aranzazu. Aranzazu being actually a Basque name. And coming over from the old mother country in Spain was the scene of the apparition of the Virgin of Aranzazu and in Mexico this tradition was brought over by the Basque immigrants to Mexico and then. because of the peculiar feature of what is known as Aransas Pass. it was. by the early settlers and colonizers and discoverers of that area called El Paso de Aranzazu. the Pass of Aranzazu. or. as we call it now. Aransas Pass. This area has been very ably served by JOE WYATT who has been. though very young. very cognizant of the history.
