of this roll was available until it was found (in Flag of the Union, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, July 23, 1836) after the monument had been engraved. Dr. Shackelford's roll shows that Brady [properly Bracey], Gibbs, Humphries, and Penny, of Captain King's company, were with the "Red Rovers", on March 19 and could not have been killed with Captain King on March 16. Dr. Shackelford also notes that several men had joined his company only a few days before its capture.

|
| Ayers, Lewis | Jenson, Charles |

These were all spared by General Urrea, as colonists, except Jenson, or Johnson, [Ehrenberg calls him a "Hamburger named Gansen"] saved by Colonel Holsinger. John James of Refugio, captured at this time, was spared for the time being, but was killed at Goliad with Colonel Fannin's men.
