2. [p.37]   The muster roll of Captain John Chenoweth's company, mustered into service February, 1836, from MUSTER ROLLS #2 1856/57, Texas General Land Office, Austin, has been published in MUSTER ROLLS OF THE TEXAS REVOLUTION, Daughters of the Republic of Texas, Austin, Texas, pp. 82-83, 1986. See LOMR in Bibliography.

3. [p.38]   The muster roll of Captain Thomas Llewellyn's Company with Grant and Fannin, organized December, 1835, is in MUSTER ROLLS #1 1850, Texas General Land Office, Austin. See LOMR in Bibliography.

4. By 1939 Davenport concluded that the two doctors in the Johnson and Grant parties were Dr. Charles P. Heartt (killed with Grant at Agua Dulce) and Dr. William M. W. Hort, killed at San Patricio while in Johnson's party. One problem with the original records is that handwritten "Hort" and "Hart" (for Dr. Charles P. Heartt) look similar and could have been copied either way. The following is a summary of references to these two doctors.
 

Davenport 1936
 Sketch: Heartt, Dr. William Charles P.,
Peacock's Co. (Bexar), Llewellyn's Co., killed, San Patricio, Feb 27, 1836.

  p.39: Llewellyn's Company, "Doct Hart killed"
  p.69: Dr. "J. Hoyt" killed, Pearson's Co., San Patricio, Feb 27, 1836.
  p.69: Dr. William Charles P. Heartt,
killed, Llewellyn's Co., San Patricio, Feb 27, 1836.
  p.154: Dr. "J. Hart" killed, Pearson's Co., San Patricio, Feb 27, 1836.
  p.306: "with Dr. W. C. P. Heartt" a member of Peacock's Co.
Davenport 1939

5. [p.190]   Herman Ehrenberg was born in the village of Steuden, old Prussia, and died in 1866 at Dos Palmos, California. The story of his father's background and the claim of Herman Ehrenberg's involvement in a liberal political movement lack documentation. [Crisp, James E. "In Pursuit of Herman Ehrenberg: A Research Adventure." Southwestern Historical Quarterly, CII (April, 1999): 423-439.]
