Honoring my ancestor on this day! Proud Texan! When Antonio López de Santa Anna marched into Texas, Bostick reenlisted, on March 21, 1836, as a private in Capt. Moseley Baker's company of Col. Edward Burleson's First Regiment, Texas Volunteers; he fought in the battle of San Jacinto. A Sion Bostick is also listed as a member of Capt. William H. Patton's Columbia Company at the time of the battle. With two other scouts, Joel Robison and James A. Sylvester, Bostick captured and brought in Santa Anna on April 22. https://tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fbo34 — #battleofbexar #battleofsanjacinto #capturedsantaanna #battleofplumcreek #mexicanwar #hoodstexasbrigade #texasveteransassociation #texasrevolution #jpvarley https://www.instagram.com/p/CN9q_qoHQVsNUAFuxBwEiQep1RXDztOIzqWgVQ0/?igshid=1hwuumoqgig7p
