The Texas Revolution February-May 1836

Texas Revolts! People: George Childress Lorenzo de Zavala James Fannin Sam Houston Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna-was the Mexican president and military leader during the Texas Revolution William B. Travis

Texas Revolts! Battles: Battle of Gonzales Siege of the Alamo Convention of 1836 Fannin’s Surrender at Goliad Battle of San Jacinto

Texas Revolution Era After Cos surrendered at San Antonio, Santa Anna began to gather troops to deal with the Texas revolutionaries.

Consequences Although the Battle of San Antonio was a success for Texans, it caused Santa Anna to become enraged. He sent one part of his army with General Urrea north, while he and his group traveled to San Antonio, where the Alamo was. Texan James Neill realized that the Alamo needed reinforcing, so he fortified it with 21 cannons, making it the most heavily defended fortress in North America. The Alamo defended Anglo settlements against the Mexican army

Siege at the Alamo However, Neill knew he didn’t have enough soldiers to defend the Alamo Colonel James (Jim) Bowie and his men reached San Antonio with orders from Sam Houston to destroy the Alamo. Bowie and Neill, along with David Crockett, decided to stay and fight. William B. Travis, only 26 years old at the time, recruited about 29 men to go and fight at the Alamo.

Siege at the Alamo, cont. Travis sent James Bonham and Juan Seguin to Goliad, Gonzales and other communities to get help. James Fannin, who was at Goliad, was reluctant to abandon his post there, but later changed his mind. It was too late. Santa Anna arrived in San Antonio on February 23 rd, 1836.

Siege at the Alamo, cont. A 13-day siege followed, with the Mexican forces pounding the Alamo with cannon fire. By March 5, 1800 Mexican troops had surrounded the Alamo and its189 Texas defenders. On March 6 at 6:30 AM, Santa Anna’s forces attacked and took the Alamo, killing all but a few women and children. They were spared so that they could warn others about opposing Santa Anna. About 600 Mexican soldiers were killed during the battle.
