Does anyone know where Davy Crockett is buried?

Answer 1

Most sources indicate Crockett and all the Alamo defenders were cremated en masse. There were unconfirmed reports that some of the Mexicans who were hired to burn and bury the dead removed Crockett to a secret, unmarked location and buried him there before his body was burned. Some say that he was secretly transported back to Tennessee to prevent Santa Anna from using his body as a trophy. These reports are all unconfirmed. Conspiracy theories aside, Crockett's body was most likely cremated with the other Alamo defenders on a mass funeral pyre after the fall of the Alamo.

Answer 2

Davy Crockett died at THE ALAMO in Texas in 1836--one of 189 defenders of the mission at San Antonio. There are theories about his burial: (1) he and everyone who died there were cremated in a mass funeral pyre; (2) he was moved secretly by Mexicans and buried before the other bodies were burned; and (3) his body was secretly transported back to Tennessee where he was born and buried there, so Mexican general ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA could not use his body as a trophy. There is a tombstone at his birthplace in Limestone, Greene County, Tennessee made from the natural limestone found there. Most likely, however, he was cremated with the other Alamo heroes.

Answer 3

Well, he wasn't exactly buried. . .there is a marker outside the Alamo in San Anotonio TX that says Davy Crockett was killed on that spot. Santa Ana's men took care of his remains and his fallen comrades. I don't have any information on his wife's burial.
