After writing the blogs about the War of 1812 Texas Veterans, I'd have to say I really came up with a how and why history for the Republic of Texas and early years as a state. And, I just used a small fraction of the ones listed in Texas 1812 Veterans site of Find-A-Grave.
Many of the men came from Southern states, with several moving to the colonies that wer being built. They fought against th Mexicans in the Texas Revolution as well as the Indians.. Most did not die during the War of 1812 and did many years later.
