History buffs seek evidence of ‘forgotten battle’ before Alamo
By Hernan Rozemerg
San Antonio, Texas (AP) Remember The Alamo!” goes the popular battle cry. But for a small cadre of dogged history buffs, truth seekers still have a thing or two to learn about a lesser-known military clash that took place two decades earlier and marked the first Texas revolution. Led by a couple of proud Tejanos – the original term for Texans of Mexican descent – and with the full blessing of the property owner, a group of about 50 metal detector-toting volunteers set off on 600 acres of pasture in far Southeast Bexar County on Saturday in search of any remaining evidence of the Battle of Medina. |
