I believe there were almost 300 murdered by the Mexicans at Goliad...something to do with black beans. As a 6th generation Tennessean, I always had a sense of pride whenever I visited the Alamo...last time in 1996. I would venture that I have been to the Alamo 20+ times or better. I used to live in Del Rio, was stationed at Lackland, spent time TDY to the MWD center at Lackland, and the last time went to continuing ed there...A good many individuals from this area are related to the Tennesseans that were killed at the Alamo...Lawrenceburg is only 60 miles from here.

Same here vet. A lot of those Tennesseans at the Alamo were from Madison County and Chester County
