1 Legend vs. Evidence David Crockett in Texas: January 1836 By: Dr. Bruce Winders, Alamo Historian & Curator I will set out for the Rio grand in a few days with the volunteers from the United States. David Crockett San Augustine January 9, 1836 David Crockett easily remains one of the most popular figures associated with the Alamo. So important is he to the story that a persistent misconception contends that he was the commander of a contingent known as the Tennessee Mounted Volunteers who followed him from their home state to Texas. In reality, Crockett came to Texas accompanied by a few friends and a nephew i, reportedly vowing to be content to serve Texas in the role of a high private. In early January 1836 Crockett, enlisted as a private in the Volunteer Auxiliary Corps for a term of six months, prepared to march off to Matamoros as part of Johnson s and Grant s ill-fated expedition. It was clear, however, that he hoped to revive his political fortunes, telling his family that he hoped to be elected a delegate to serve at the upcoming constitutional convention to be held at Washington-on-the-Brazos. Failing in that endeavor due to questions over his eligibility, he was sent off to San Antonio de Béxar. Arriving there around February 8, Crockett became a member of Captain William B. Harrison s volunteer company. However, his status as a former Congressman and colonel of Tennessee militia guaranteed that his fellow volunteers accorded him a special place in the garrison.
2 Documents Regarding David Crockett in Texas January 14, 1836: Crockett signed an oath at Nacogdoches to serve as a Volunteer Auxiliary Corps for a term of six months. I do solemnly swear that I will bear true allegiance to the Provisional Government of Texas, or any future republican Government that hereafter may be declared, and that I will serve her honestly and faithfully against all her enemies and opposers whatsoever, and observe and obey the orders of the Governor of Texas, the orders and decrees of the present and future authorities and the orders of the officers appointed over me according to the rules and regulations for the government of Texas. So help me God. John C. Allison Henry S. Stouffered Wm. M. Berryhill H. B. Durham John Frederick J. H. Taylor Edward W. Taylor Luke M. Bast Jas.

3 The above sworn to and subscribed to me this 14 Jany John Forbes 1 st Judge of the Municipality of Nacogdoches Sources: John H. Jenkins, ed., Papers of the Texas Revolution, 4: {Jenkins' source is the Nacogdoches Archives, Texas.} Regarding Crockett s Oath Col. Forbes has recently related to us an interesting anecdote of the celebrated Crockett. At the commencement of war the latter arrived at Nacogdoches accompanied by several volunteers. Soon after their arrival they proceeded to the office of col, Forbes (who was then the first judge of the municipality of), to take the oath of allegiance. The colonel immediately wrote out the following form: I do solemnly swear that I will bear true allegiance to the provisional government of Texas, or any future government that hereafter may be declared, and that I will serve her honestly and faithfully against all her enemies and opposers whatsoever, and observe and obey the orders of the Governor of Texas, the orders and decrees of the present and future authorities and the orders of the officers appointed over me according to the rules and articles for the government of Texas so help me God. Upon offering it to Crockett he refused to sign it, saying that he was willing to take an oath to support any future republican, but could not subscribe his name to this form, as the future government might be despotic; the colonel therefore inserted the word republican between the words future and government, and Crockett signed the instrument. The original has lately been deposited in the office of the secretary of War, in which the word republican is interlined, and beneath it is the autograph of David Crockett. Texas Telegraph. According to Shackford, this story appeared as a reprinted article in Niles Register, June 23, Source: Shackford, David Crockett, {Niles Register, LIV, 258, cited on 313, endnote 10. NOTE: Shackford points out that Crockett wrote that he had already taken the oath of government and have enrolled my name as a volunteer in his letter of January 9 th to his son and daughter. He suggests an explanation that one of the following cases was true: one of the documents (the letter or the oath) was misdated; Crockett had taken a verbal oath and made it
