  • The original Texas Rangers, formed in the 19th century, were paid varying amounts over different periods. When the Texas Rangers were officially established, their pay was not consistent and changed over time due to different circumstances such as available funding, legislative decisions, and the economic conditions of the era. For instance, during the early 1830s, records indicate that they were sometimes paid $1.25 per day. However, this rate could fluctuate based on the specific time period and the political and economic climate of Texas at the time.
