Haha Davy Crockett is my ancestor and I'm in texas but a different part and the irony of this is im half Cherokee and even though Crockett served with Jackson he actually was against Indian removal..so I already like the guy 😊
I live in Tennessee, about 17 miles from Davy's Cabin (Rutherford Tennessee, Gibson County). I've some details and a little perspective to share with you ... Crockett was one of the earliest to "go West" in Tennessee, and although one of his homes is in Gibson County, about 30 miles from the Mississippi River, he hunted and fished in the area NW of there, now called Reelfoot Lake. My Dad's Family, both parents, came to Gibson County from Maury County, Tennessee in the early 1900's. Crockett was very well liked in the Western part of Tennessee, then and he remains favored among the characters of local History. On the other hand, Jackson could be a real arse. He was hard headed, tunnel visioned, and had a double standard, whatever he did was fine. I genuinely feel compassion for his wife, (accused of living in Adultery, Jackson's fault, I believe), so challenged by the Judgemental Tennesseans and others, but Jackson's behaviors and his attitude "stretches my zone". Responsible for "The Trail of Tears". My Dad moved us to Tennessee when I was a child. Born in Chicago, I never fully identified with the Southern Culture. I'm a bit too Free Thinking to be confused with a Traditional Southern Native, although I received my education, 1st grade through college in the Tennessee Education System. Alumni of the "University of Memphis" 🐾 I'm a Chicago born, Northside, Cubbie loving, whiskey drinking, Irish Catholic. You can take the girl out of the city but ya can't take the Chicago out of me. However, my degrees are in Sociology/Behavioralism, Journalism, and History, and I still study and research in all 3, most avidly History. You must know, you have a most worthy heritage, Crockett was a man among men, Authentic in his Character, Ethics, and Integrity, he called a spade a spade, and he demonstrated his empathy for fellow man and he was a man of his word. Today, he would be candid about the behaviors of grown men and women, thinking through their "Lower Mind, aka Ego Mind, aka Adolescent Mind", the 1st to defend the Constitution, the Justice System, and to point out that regardless of Party, a man is responsible for his actions and his words. He would, with haste, be the first to stand behind a podium and, with Discernment rather than a Judgemental attitude, state that "the office of the President of the United States" calls for a man or woman, of Presidential Character. ... and although the Parties have swapped agendas, (a Lincoln Republican would be a Democrat today), the South followed the agenda from what was Democrat in 1860 to Republican and remains a Red State in 2024. (to my regret). I believe in a 2 party system, and the heavy majority here is frustrating. In Crockett's era the parties were: Democratic Jacksonian Party (Republican today), and the Whig Party which morphed into the Republican Party of the mid 1800's (Democrat Party today) Crockett had a falling out with Jackson and the Democratic Jacksonian. party, switched to the Whig Party for the remainder of his life. Based on the History as * have understood it, I would have "Welcomed him to the Whig-Republican Party then or the Independent Democrat Party today). Independent Democrats are basically Democrats that are Moderates, politically, Liberal in Thought, and Independent, not taking part in the Media's manipulation of the American Public for the Agendas of the Elite Owners and the International Bankers and Financiers, the family and their allies that privately own the "Federal Reserve Bank Corporation", frequency referred to as "The Powers that Be". I can imagine Davy Crockett saying: Country 1st, then Party and although it is 200 years later, he would say: "Id be concerned about a man who behaved like an Adolescent and creates more drama than a spoiled 5th grader". Through our family DNA we discovered that we are related to none other than President Abraham Lincoln. My Mother's Father's family, Virginia and Kentucky. Ancestry.com There is a vast History in Ancestry, and I suspect when you take time to research, you'll find way more. Tennessee received its State reference "the Volunteer State" from Davy Crockett and the Volunteers that accompanied him to San Antonio, Texas. NOTE: One last item, it is rumored that Crockett may have survived the fated day: he was a Mason and Santa Anna was said to be a Mason. It is rumored that he wouldn't have allowed a fellow Mason to be executed. The story goes that Davy was fed up with the "Lower Minded aka Ego Minded aka Adolescent Minded" Political and Social Attitudes, their short sightedness and Judgemental ways, and he opted out after the Alamo, with the opportunity of being presumed dead, and moved to Alabama, where his family joined him and continued life farming and living an upper Middle Class family life. I've never researched this story, but always hoped it to be True. Best Regards !

This claims Jim Bridger was the first white man to see Yellowstone. It was actually achieved by John Colter around winter 1807-1808, when Jim Bridger was around 3 or 4 years old. Colter had been on the Lewis and Clark expedition and was released from the expedition as it returned east. He explored the Yellowstone and Teton area. When he told people what he saw, including geysers and the smell of sulfer, people thought he was telling fable and referred to this place as Colters Hell.
I had to stop as soon as you got to Jesse James! Did you actually read any books about real history or did you compile other people’s videos and/or hearsay on the subject matter? Jesse James was NOT a confederate soldier due to being too young to enlist. He was 17 when the war ended, but it never ended for them. His older brother Frank James was a soldier. They all felt the same way, however, including their mother Zerelda Cole James (She remarried after her first husband disappeared on a trip to California, perhaps dead or maybe just found another woman) Frank was tough, but Jesse was tougher, meaner and deadlier. Their stepfather was abusive, so Jesse had some rage. They both walked and rode horseback for several days (>500 miles) from Northfield, Minnesota back home to central Missouri with hardly any rest and Frank wounded after their bank robbery attempt went awry. The Youngers were shot up pretty badly and Cole couldn’t continue. I believe two of the gang died in the shootout with the citizens. Cole Younger served his sentence and lived to do “Wild West” shows with Frank James in the 1900’s. He and Frank lived to be over 70. Read every once in a while, man!
Good video!
I needed this
Too many typos
This is dope! Really enjoyed it, but you really gotta watch those spelling mistakes man

Appreciate your hard work
Saying John Brown was pro-slavery is like saying St. Peter was anti-Christian.
William Bonnie lived a full life, in spite of the "story", DNA and records are said to prove this as fact. Pleases me.
