There were between 182 and 260 Alamo defenders. There were regular troops of the Army of the Republic of Texas under the command of Colonel Travis. There were Texian volunteers who were not present as members of the Texas Army who were loosely under the control of Jim Bowie. There were Americans (that is US Citizens) like Crockett's band of adventurers. There were slaves present who were defenders and had a loyalty not to Texas but to their owners.
There were no active duty American soldiers of the US Armed Forces present at the Alamo.
Further, it must be noted that the defenders were not all former US Citizens who had been transplanted to Texas. A large number of the Alamo defenders were Mexican by both birth and ethnicity (That is a Tejano or Texans of Mexican descent). That exact number remains an unknown, but based on surnames is between 20 and 25 percent.
