David (Davy) Crockett (1786–1836) was a legendary frontiersman, congressman, and defender of the Alamo. Son of John and Rebecca (Hawkins) Crockett, was born in Greene County, Tennessee.

After a life full of adventure - Crockett died in battle of the Alamo on March 6th 1836. What one writer has dubbed "a monstrous and unwieldy subcategory of Texana and Alamo writing," and another calls "the Crockett death wars," emerged as a result of the publication of the journal of Lt. José Enrique de la Peña. This "eyewitness account" declared that Crockett and five or six others were captured when Mexican troops overtook the Alamo at about six o'clock that morning. Santa Anna had ordered that no prisoners be taken.
