The Myth Scots irish use to say he was one of theirs.
No such DNA as Scots Irish, Most Scots are ethically Irish, and the vast bulk of the Scots who emgirated were highlanders who were DNA Irish and Irish speaking as well.
Religion is just a temporary badge held up most by those who are not genuinely religious. Scot is Latin for the Irish race. Scots and Scotland would not exist if it were not for Irish emigrants. Try picking up a independent history book and shock your inherited ignorance.
Huguenot is pronounced Hugh-Gan-no and the Crocket surname was originally de la Croquetagne, but was anglicized when his ancestors fled to the North of Ireland from France.
Davy Crockett died at the Alamo while trying to escape dressed as a woman. He was caught and shot and burned by Santa Ana. History does not say if he was wearing matching purse and pumps.
He never went by Davy- he always went by David. The tv show started the use of "Davy" for the theme song. Just a little tidbit from a North Alabama girl in the Tennessee Valley. :)
If Crockett entered into Mexico's Texas without becomming a Mexican citizen, then he was an illegal alien in Mexico. If so, he was guilty of raising arms against the soverign nation of Mexico while on its soverign land; therefore, he's legally considered an invader. On the other hand, if he legally became a Mexican citizen, then he can't be considered an American hero since that means he legally renounced his American citizenship, thereby becomming a Mexican rebel & dying as such.
Davy Crockett, he was,"The Man"!!! If we ever needed a, "Hero", it was Davy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
David Crockett (Davy) was the person you would want as your Great Grand Father! What would compell Davy to come to Texas? Land, maybe but he also new it implied risks! What about the Men who followed Davy? This is where I count every one of them Heroes! Where do you start and when do you stop?Jim Dorman
sounds like it was jim bowie,and his brother they may have met.both were knife makers and jim was at the alomo. Still its a very nice piece of history for your family.jim bowie was just as well known .
Davy Crockett's knife still exists, it is basically a butcher knife , with grips that have angled and crossed lines cut into the handle. It is a big knife and not like a Bowie.
If you follow that Jim Bowie's knif made out of a file would look like a Searles bowie, not like the generally accepted shape.
Wow1 Thanks for this really accessible bit of history. Still fascinated by Davie. In 1957, As `English boy of 4 years old I was heartbroken when we moved house and i was unable to take my Davy Crocket wall Paper with me. Hung onto kids' Racoon skin hat for many years though. My 'most prized'!
@Deguello321 Among the accidents of history we are born now or then, in this tribe or that. How would we behave back then if we knew only what they knew ? Knowing what we know now, what are we doing for peace and justice and humanity with our own lives ? All heroes have feet of clay, yet we dream of the person we would hope to be when we face the darkest challenges of life. May we never fall victim to the evil belief that some men are only beasts on two legs..
Among the planned events in history by idiots who knew how they were behaving, we are sure that many behaved differently from the norm. Nirvana doesn't work here!
Your a real dumb ass for believing all of the propaganda out there about Crockett and the rest of their racist crew. Wake up and smell real history and not the sugar coated bull!
Davy Cricket was a rotten tooth scumbag coward

I hate it when people say he was a hero. He was a murderer. No need to argue as it's self evident. That's it.
