The Texas Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Texas is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the Conviction Database search lets anyone look up convictions and deferred adjudications by name, for $3 a search, through the Texas Department of Public Safety. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it. The search is on the Texas Department of Public Safety site.
To see your own record, the route is a fingerprint-based request to the Department of Public Safety. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at securesite.dps.texas.gov/dpswebsite/criminalhistory.
