1836 · Remember the Alamo
Being a monumental event in the Texas Revolution, The Battle of the Alamo was a thirteen-day battle at the Alamo Mission near San Antonio. In the early morning of the final battle, the Mexican Army advanced on the Alamo. Quickly being overrun, the Texian Soldiers quickly withdrew inside the building. The battle has often been overshadowed by events from the Mexican–American War, But the Alamo gradually became known as a national battle site and later named an official Texas State Shrine.
Name Meaning
English (Northumberland): from a variant of the male personal name Armin with prosthetic H- + -son. Armin is itself from Ermin, a pet form of any of several Norman names in Ermen-, Ermin-, which derive from ancient Germanic erman- ‘powerful’, for example Ermenald, Ermingaud.
