If you make an region with proj=tmerc elipsoid=internacional
and the correct parameters of this
Enter Central Parallel (23N):
Enter Central Meridian (96W):
Enter Scale Factor at the Central Meridian  [1.0000000000]:
Enter False Easting  [0.0000000000]:

Sorry can't help you with the parameters I belive 0N for the first one.

If you don not use r.distans or r.buffer or intresting in
being able to calculate a new projetion.
I belive an simpel XY system is totaly okey.
Please anyone correct me if I am wrong !
or know more resons for seting up an projection.

I Datum Lx is for calculate things on the Geoid and maps calculats
distans on the ellipsoid so it is not rely use full.
