    Notes:

    Who Was Davy Crockett?
    Davy Crockett was a frontiersman who later became a folk hero. In 1813 , h e participated in a massacre against the Creek Indians at Tallushatch ee a nd later earned a seat in the 21st U.S. Congress. He was re-electe d to Co ngress twice before leaving politics to fight in the Texas Revolu tion. O n March 6, 1836, Crockett was killed at the Battle of the Alamo i n San An tonio, though the exact circumstances of his death have been th e subjec t of debate.
    Early Life
    Crockett was born as David Crockett on August 17, 1786, in Greene Count y , Tennessee. He was the fifth of nine children born to parents John an d R ebecca (Hawkins) Crockett.
    Crockett's father taught him to shoot a rifle when he was just 8 years o l d. As a youngster, he eagerly accompanied his older brothers on huntin g t rips. But, when he turned 13, his father insisted that he enroll in s choo l. After only a few days of attendance, Crockett fought the class bu lly a nd was afraid to go back, fearing possible punishment or revenge. I nstead , he ran away from home and spent more than two years wandering wh ile hon ing his skills as a woodsman.
    Just before he turned 16, Crockett went home and helped work off his fat h er's debt to a man named John Canady. After the debt was paid, he conti nu ed working for Canady. At just a day shy of 20, Crockett married Mar y Fin ley. The two would have two sons and a daughter before Mary died. C rocket t then wed Elizabeth Patton, and the couple had two children.
    War of 1812
    In 1813, after the War of 1812 broke out, Crockett signed up to be a sco u t in the militia under Major John Gibson. Stationed in Winchester, Tenn es see, Crockett joined a mission to seek revenge for the Creek Indians ' ear lier attack on Fort Mims, Alabama. In November of that year, the mi liti a massacred the Indians' town of Tallushatchee, Alabama.
    When Crockett's enlistment period for the Creek Indian War was up, he re - enlisted, this time as a third sergeant under Captain John Cowan. Crock et t was discharged as a fourth sergeant in 1815 and went home to his fam il y in Tennessee.
    Congressman Crockett
    After returning home, Crockett became a member of the Tennessee State Ho u se of Representatives from 1821 to 1823. In 1825, he ran for the 19th U .S . Congress but lost.
    Running as a supporter of Andrew Jackson in 1826, Crockett earned a se a t in the U.S. House of Representatives. In March 1829, he changed his p ol itical stance to anti-Jacksonian and was re-elected to the 21st Congre ss , though he failed to earn a seat in the 22nd Congress. He was, howeve r , elected to the 23rd Congress in 1833 .
    (1931–)
    Crockett's stint in Congress concluded in 1835, after his run for re-ele c tion to the 24th Congress ended in defeat.
    Frontiersman and Folk Legend
    During his political career, Crockett developed a reputation as a fronti e rsman that, while at times exaggerated, elevated him to folk legend sta tu s. While Crockett was indeed a skilled woodsman, his fame as a Hercule an , rebellious, sharpshooting, tale-spinning and larger-than-life woodsm a n was at least partially a product of his efforts to package himself a n d win votes during his political campaigns .
    The strategy proved largely effective; his renown helped him defeat th e i ncumbent candidate in his 1833 bid for reelection to Congress.
    Death at the Alamo and Controvers y
    After Crockett lost the 1835 congressional election, he grew disillusion e d with politics and decided to join the fight in the Texas Revolution . O n March 6, 1836, he was believed to be killed at the Battle of the Al am o in San Antonio, Texas.
    In a 1975 English translation, the memoirs of a Mexican officer named Jo s é Enrique de la Peña stated that Crockett and his comrades at arms wer e e xecuted, though they "died without complaining and without humiliatin g th emselves before their torturers."
    Yet questions over the memoir, which was first published in 1955, have r i sen over the years, with some scholars disagreeing over the veracity o f t he account of Crockett's death. As a result, the exact circumstance s of h is demise at the Alamo remain the subject of debate.
    Media Depictions
    Crockett has enjoyed ongoing depictions in various media forms over th e d ecades. He was the subject of various books and almanacs as well a s a pla y during the 19th century.
    He later entered the popular imagination of the 20th century due to a 19 1 6 movie and the 1950s Walt Disney TV series Disneyland, featuring acto r F ess Parker as Crockett in a number of episodes. The show and accompan yin g big-screen film cemented the frontiersman as an icon for many child ren , also inspiring a merchandising bonanza while creating new sets of f icti ons for historians to contend with. Crockett received more screen ti me vi a John Wayne's portrayal in the 1960 film The Alamo.
