The "official" numbers vary from 189 to 257 defenders. There were several noncombatants which are probably what cause the confusion. All the defenders died fighting except a half dozen that were taken prisoner who were taken to Santa Anna and hacked to pieces by his officers for Santa Anna's entertainment.

Actually numbers are not known, but Captain Juan Seguin commanded at least 21 Tejanos.
