Crockett was a major mover- and shaker on the Western Frontier- as the Disney film and other stuff maintain. originally from Tennesee, he was also involved in politics and died at the battle of the Alamo in l836. Crockett was a much younger man than the related historically Daniel Boone- and as far as is known they never met. Boone is noted for opening up the Cumberland Gap, the settlement of Kentucky- Indian fighting as with Mr. Crockett, and both knew how to handle the muzzle-loading rifles of the day, popularily called Kentucky rifles though most were made in PA. Very few have been found actually fabricated in Kentucky! Both pioneers wore the popular Coonskin cap and the actor Fess Parker played both roles- don"t draw unless you aim to shoot! was a popular Frontier maxim- in other words- don"t fire blanks aiming to deceive. well he was in Politics, as a congressman.
