Default Texas Independence...

...was declared on March 2, 1836, four days before the Alamo fell.

Isn't it ironic that the men in the Alamo never knew that they were fighting and dying for a free Texas.

Well, I guess I'm confused about the Alamo's flag. I always thought that the flag that Santa Anna sent back to Mexico City was the flag of the NEW ORLEANS GRAYS...the "treacherous colonists, and their abettors, who came from ports of the United States of the North."
