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: variant of Boone .
Dutch: from a shortened form of the personal name Boudijn, itself shortened from Boudewijn (see Baldwin ), or from Latin Bonifatius (see Boniface ), a Christian saint's name.
Dutch: from boon ‘bean’, hence a metonymic occupational name for a bean grower, or perhaps a nickname for a tall thin man (with reference to the stringbean).
