What was the Convention of 1836
At the end of The Battle of Goliad, after Texans surrendered, Fannin and his troops were marched back to Goliad and imprisoned in the old presido.
some historian say that he was told his troops were to be executed if he did not sign. On March 27 Texans marched to Goliad and were held there for a week those who could walk were in a column in three and shot fannin and others were later executed. I got this info from history class.
james fannin was stupid and ended up getting all of the soldiers(including him) executed. the mexicans shot them point blank. what an idiot, right!
Some facts about the Battle of Concepcion include the fact that it took place on October 28, 1835 and lasted only 1/2 hour. The leader for Mexico was Domingo Ugartechea and the leaders of the Texian insurgents were James Bowie and James Fannin. There were many casualties on the Mexican side and they retreated quickly.
AnswerActually the battle of Goliad was won by the Mexican forces under General Urrea who, obeying the orders of Gen. Santa Anna, captured the Texian forces commanded by Col. James Fannin after fleeing the fortress. Fannin had surrendered,assuming he and his forces would be treated as prisoners of war but he and his forces were slaughtered shortly after surrendering.
The general who captured James Fannin and his men was José de Urrea, a Mexican general during the Texas Revolution. Urrea led a successful campaign against Texian forces and ultimately defeated Fannin at the Battle of Coleto in March 1836. After Fannin's surrender, Urrea was ordered to execute the prisoners, which led to the Goliad Massacre.
