My family history includes the surname of >DAVIS, and I've been getting lots of queries about whether the John Davis who >was killed at the Alamo along with Davy Crockett, Travis, etc., was a member >of my Davis bunch. I haven't been able to find out much about him, but one >person I heard from said that he was in the group from Louisiana who answered >Travis's plea for help, was single, had a twin brother and originally was >from Kentucky. I found a list of the names of the defenders of the Alamo on >the website: > >http://numedia.tddc.net/sa/alamo/TOC.HTML > >but there was no biographical info, just the names. So I was wondering if >you have any info on these men or if you know of a website which may have >something? > >Thanks a bunch, > >Betty not to step on Charles toes.....the site on Bexar County Texas genweb page also give a John Davis born in Kentucky but nothing else. Alamo was Marcy 1836 for the Siege of Bexar Dec 5-10, 1835 there are listed 3 with Davis surname - Lee R. Davis Hiram Davis Travis Davis this is at www.rootsweb.com/~txbexar/189alamo.htm now someplace I did once see a listing of Alamo defenders with bio on each....maybe check out Bexar County Historical society or the library.
