Note:
Joseph Bayliss is generally considered to have come to Texas in 1835. If this 1829 Mexican census is correct, then it revises what has previously been published.
I researched in San Augustine and could not find his name in the 1829 census list they had.
• Letters from Micajah Autry: Regarding the Alamo Preparations, 1835 1836. 496 Reprinted (With Comments) in Texas State Historical Association's Southwestern Historical Quarterly Online. Volume 14, Number 4, April 1911.
Direct quote:
Micajah Autry's letters to his wife were addressed to Mrs. Martha W. Autry, Middleburg, Hardeman County, Tennessee. The letters tell of his journey to Texas and preparations for their travel to the Alamo.
In a letter dated Memphis, Tennessee, December 7, 1835, he says:
I have taken my passage in the steamboat Pacific and
shall leave in an hour or two. . . . I have met in the
same boat a number of acquaintances from Nashville and
the District, bound for Texas, among whom are George C.
Childress and his brother. Childress
thinks the fighting will be over before we get there,
and speaks cheeringly of the prospects. I feel more
energy than I ever did in anything I have undertaken. I
am determined to provide for you a home or perish. . . .
Fare you all well till you hear from me again, perhaps
from Natchez. . . .
In a letter written from Nachitoches, December 13, 1835, he says:
About 20 minutes ago I landed at this place safely after
considerable peril. About 20 men from Tennessee formed
our squad at Memphis, and all landed safely at the mouth
of Red River. Major Eaton and Lady were on board the
Pacific, to whom I suppose I was favourably introduced
by Mr. Childress, from that however or from some other
reason Gov. Eaton paid me the most friendly and
assiduous attention. . . . I have not met with a more
amiable and agreeable man than the Governor. By his
persuasion a Major Arnold from Tennessee (a cousin of
Gen'l Arnold) and myself left the rest of our Company at
the mouth of Red River and went down to Orleans for the
purpose of learning the true state of things in Texas as
well as which would be the best probable rout. The
result was that, the war is still going on favourably to
the Texans, but it is thought that Santa Anna will make
a descent with his whole forces in the Spring, but there
will be soldiers enough of the real grit in Texas by
that time to overrun all Mexico.
The only danger is in starvation, for the impulse to
Texas both as to soldiers and moving families exceeds
anything I have ever known. I have little doubt but that
the army will receive ample supplies from Orleans both
of provisions and munitions of war, as the people of
Texas have formed themselves into something like a
government, which will give them credit in Orleans. I
have had many glowing descriptions of the country by
those who have been there. . . . We have between 400 and
500 miles to foot it to the seat of government, for we
cannot get horses, but we have sworn allegiance to each
other and will get along somehow. . . . The smallpox has
recently broken out here very bad, but I fear the Tavern
bill a great deal worse. Such charges never were heard
of and we have to stay here probably several days before
we can procure a conveyance for our baggage. I supose we
shall join and buy a waggon.
Write to me to this place all the letters you send by
mail, perhaps the general intercourse from here to
Texas, will enable me to get them conveniently. Write me
in Texas by every private opportunity, and I will do the
same. . . . I send this by Mr. Sevier who promises to
put it in the postoffice at Bolivar or Middleburg. . . .
P. S. The Company of young men that left Jackson before
did passed through here about 20 days ago. [He mentions
the name of Charles Haskell as having been among these,
who had all gone on to "St Antone" the seat of war.]

Pursuing the course of Micajah Autry by means of these letters, it appears that he had not overestimated the difficulties that would beset his path on the way to Texas. In the last letter received by his wife he writes as follows:
Nacogdoches, Jany. 13th, 1836.
My Dear Martha,
I have reached this point after many hardships and
privations but thank God in most excellent health. The
very great fatigue I have suffered has in a degree
stifled reflection and has been an advantage to me. I
walked from Nachitoches whence I wrote you last to
this place 115 miles through torrents of rain, mud and
water. I had remained a few days in St. Augustine when
Capt. Kimble from Clarksvelle, Ten. a lawyer of whom
you may recollect to have heard me speak arrived with
a small company of select men, 4 of them lawyers. I
joined them and find them perfect gentlemen. We are
waiting for a company daily expected from Columbia,
Ten. under Col. Hill with whom we expect to march to
head quarters (Washington) 125 miles from here, where
we shall join Houston the commander in chief and
receive our destination. I may or may not receive
promotion as there are many very meritorious men
seeking the same. I have become one of the most
thorough going men you ever heard of. I go the whole
Hog in the cause of Texas. I expect to help them gain
their independence and also to form their civil
government, for it is worth risking many lives for.
From what I have seen and learned from others there is
not so fair a portion of the earth's surface warmed by
the sun.
Be of good cheer Martha I will provide you a sweet
home. I shall be entitled to 640 acres of land for my
services in the army and 4444 acres upon condition of
settling my family here. Whether I shall be able to
move you here next fall or not will depend upon the
termination of the present contest. Some say that
Santa Ana is in the field with an immense army and
near the confines of Texas, others say since the
conquest of St. Antonio by the Texians and the
imprisonment of Genl. Cos and 1100 men of which you
have no doubt heard, that Santa Ana has become
intimidated for fear that the Texians will drive the
war into his dominions and is now holding himself in
readiness to fly to Europe which latter report I am
inclined to discredit, what is the truth of the matter
no one here knows or pretends to know.
Tell Mr. Smith not to think of remaining where he is
but to be ready to come to this country at the very moment
the government shall be settled, as for a trifle he may
procure a possession of land that will make a fortune
for himself, his children and his children's children
of its own increase in value and such a cotton country
is not under the sun. I have just been introduced to
Mr. McNiell a nephew of Mr. S. who is now in this
place and appears to be much of a gentleman. Give my
most kind affection to Amelia and Mr Smith and to my
own Dear Mary and James give a thousand tender
embraces and for you my Dearest Martha may the smile
of heaven keep you as happy as possible till we meet.
M. Autry.
Tell Brothers J. & S. I have not time to write to them
at present as Mr. Madding and Sevier by whom I send
this can not wait. Tell Brother Jack to think of
nothing but coming here with us; that if he knew as
much about this country as I already do he would not
be kept from it. Tell him to study law as this will be
the greatest country for that profession as soon as we
have a government that ever was known.
M. A.
P. S. We stand guard of nights and night before last
was mine to stand two hours during which the moon rose
in all her mildness but splendor and majesty. With
what pleasure did I contemplate that lovely orb
chiefly because I recollected how often you and I had
taken pleasure in standing in the door and
contemplating her together. Indeed I imagined that you
might be looking at her at the same time. Farewell
Dear Martha.
M. A.
P. S. Col. Crockett has just joined our company.
The following copy of a muster roll shows some of the companions with whom Autry left Nacogdoches. They formally swore:
Know all men by these presents: That I have this day
voluntarily enlisted myself in the Volunteer Auxiliary
Corps, for and during the term of six months.
And I do solemnly swear that I will bear true allegiance
to the provisional Government of Texas, or any future
Government that may be hereafter declared, and that I
will serve her honestly and faithfully against all her
enemies whatsoever and observe and obey the orders of
the Governor of Texas, the orders and decrees of the
present and future authorities and the orders of the
officers appointed over me according to the rules and
regulations for the government of the Armies of Texas. So
help me God.

Comments printed along with quoted letter:
It would be very interesting to know how this little party of patriots marched to San Antonio. But history is as yet silent upon that point. From a letter written
from Bexar on February 11, 1836, by G. B. Jameson we learn that the Texans had on that date at Bexar one hundred and fifty men, and that Colonels Crockett and Travis were there, and that Colonel Bowie was in command of the volunteers. It is probable that Autry and his companions arrived at about the same time as Crockett, and that within the space of about twenty-five days they had traversed that wide area of almost uninhabited territory which separated Nacogdoches from their destination.
Did the Tennesseeans do as Major Autry suggested they might: "join together and buy a waggon for their baggage" and march on foot that long distance,
or were they fortunate enough to get horses? They had enlisted at Nacogdoches in the Volunteer Auxiliary Corps for six months and had sworn allegiance to the government of Texas and to EACH OTHER.
Right nobly did they keep their word! The copy of this muster roll contains the last mention of the devoted band until the names of all but three of them were inscribed on the imperishable roll of history as heroes of the Alamo. The interval between January 14 and March 6, 1836, was full of tragedy for them. The long, tortuous, muddy, often almost impassable trail, called at the time the "old San Antonio road."

Remarks at the Alamo in San Antonio
April 9, 1976
Thank you very much, Senator Tower, Mayor Cockrell, honored guests, ladies and gentlemen:
May I at this time express my very deep appreciation and gratitude to Mayor Cockrell for the very thoughtful and very beautiful gift on behalf of the people of San Antonio. I can say without any hesitation or reservatio that both Betty and I will prize this very, very highly. And I thank you very, very much. At the outset, may I thank the San Antonio Bicentennial Committee and the Daughters of the Republic of Texas for making this memorable occasion possible.
It is a tremendous honor for me to join all of you in a new commemoration of the cradle of Texas liberty. These hallowed grounds were already in physical ruins when Colonel Travis sounded his battle call for the people of Texas and all Americans in the world. But because of a single great battle, the Alamo has put on the immortality of history. More than a shrine to Texas valor, more than a landmark of American courage, the Alamo is a monument to human freedom. Here the eyes of Texas and the attention of the world focused on more than 180 remarkable men who gave all they had to give in the defense of liberty.
The names of some of these very brave defenders are written large on the pages of history. Travis and Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie, among others, have entered the domain of American legend as well as lore. But these were only a few of the more than 180 valiant men who waited out a deadly siege and fought against incredible odds for days on end in the defense of the Alamo, of Texas, and our great liberty in America.
We rarely hear of Joseph Bayliss or Antonio Fuentes or Robert Musselman or Charles Zanco, but these men were here too. They fought and died with the same courage that marked their more celebrated compatriots and their names too, have been written on the rolls of honor that history reserves for only a few.
Some of these men came here believing one hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name. Others thirsted for battle with the Napoleon of the West, Santa Anna, but all of them came to the defense of this capital fortress knowing full well that they would meet victory or death.
Like America's Revolutionary heroes a half a century earlier these were men yearning for freedom and a new life. And like those earlier patriots, these men were struggling not only for the priceless treasures of liberty but for a land of incredible beauty as well as abundance.
As one early Texan wrote, "It does not appear to me possible that there can be a land more lovely." With so much worth defending, it is no wonder that when Colonel Travis was issued a demand for surrender, he answered that demand forthrightly with a cannon shot. It is no wonder that more than 180 rugged men made so valiant a defense here, 140 years and 1 month ago.
This great epic of courage, this great epic of defiance, which is the story of the Alamo, is without doubt a story quite familiar to those of you who live in the shadow of this chapel or in the city that surrounds it. But whether the story is old or new, it is to us and will always be a towering source of inspiration to every American.
In our time, far removed from the sounds of ferocious battle which filled this courtyard in 1836, we look back in honor to the more than 180 men who did battle here and thereby nobly advanced the cause of Texas liberty and independence. All Americans who have gone to battle in defense of liberty share a kindred spirit with these men of the Alamo. Since 1776 Americans have paid a high price for the freedom that each one of us and all of us enjoy. We have paid it in the universal currencies of courage and sacrifice and blood.
We are thankful today that America is at peace and is blessed with freedom. We rejoice that this day finds no Americans in combat anywhere on the face of the globe. And yet, we know that [in] peace, as in war we must stand ready to defend liberty. Brave as these men were who fought in this immediate area and despite the heavy casualties they inflicted on their advancing enemy, the garrison that fought here fell at last before an army of superior size and superior strength. In global terms, America must never give away such an advantage to any potential enemy, and we never will. All of our courage, all of our skill in battle will profit us very, very little if we fail to maintain the unsurpasse military strength which this dangerous world demands of us.
But neither do vast stores of armaments alone constitute America's greatest strength. Our greatest strength resides within our own hearts, hearts filled with pride and past achievements, hearts filled with hope for a promising future, hearts filled with courage for challenges that stand before us.
It is the duty of every one of us, whatever our age or race or station in life, to ensure that we have something worth defending in America; a land of liberty and opportunity and justice, a government that guards our rights, defends our shores, protects our safety, and sustains our progress, and people of independent spirit, determination, and faith.
As we dedicate ourselves again here today to the defense of these priceless treasures, we know that they are the same ones which others fought for on this site 140 years ago. May we always share their courage, and may Americans always be inspired as we have all been by those thrilling words which echo still in this old courtyard--"Remember the Alamo."
Thank you very much.
NOTE: The President spoke at 12:15 p.m. at the Alamo Plaza, where he received the medallion of the city of San Antonio from Mayor Lila Cockrell. He was introduced by Senator John G.Tower, chairman of the Texas President Ford Committee.
