This does not seem to be overly documented or is there something?

So essentially, I want four vertices with texture coordinates, all the same normals.

(I am mostly a 3D NOOB, so don't be offended )

The documentation is a bit verbose, but it is all in there.

Heres an example that uses a 3 functions to lessen the complexity a bit
https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/224567

1) Create a memblock
2) Set the memblock & vertex information at the start as per the documentation
3) Add some vertices (and some indices if you use them)
4) create the object from your memblock.

You could of course just create a plane object then convert it to a memblock and you then get pretty much what you are after. Just be aware that this will give you an object with 2 front triangles and 2 rear ones as well. The vertices / normals and texture coords will already be set.

There's a lot of good info in this thread: https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/225808.
The user that created it has been permanently banned for reasons that we do not need to discuss. So, if anyone brings it up, I will be deleting those comments.
I don't really like linking to one of his threads but despite his need to be banned he did have some good coding skills.

That code mesher shared is pretty cool but full of bugs and slow downs
But could be the base for a cool psx style mapper?
