David Crockett was actually born in the state of Franklin, 4 counties seceded from North Carolina in 1784 and were re-absorbed in 1788, but Crockett was born in 1786.
Please consider replacing,
“David was born in what is now Greene county, Tennessee (at the time part of North Carolina),”
And replace it with something like,
“David was born in what is now Greene county, Tennessee (at the time part of the independent state Franklin before being re-absorbed into North Carolina).”
Done I have a feeling it will get reverted as there are four templates down there already, but we'll see. Xan747✈️🧑✈️ 18:36, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ORIGINS OF THE CROCKETT NAME ARE NOT HUGUENOT[edit]
The Crockett name has its origins in Scotland, specifically among the clans of the Dalriadan kingdom. These clans inhabited the Hebrides islands and the rugged western coast of Scotland. The name Crockett is derived from the Gaelic personal name Mac Riociard, which means “son of Richard”. The Gaelic name itself comes from the Germanic words “ric” (meaning power) and “hard” (meaning hardy or brave) 12.
In Scotland, the Galloway family name Crockett is believed to have originated from Macriocaird, where “mac” signifies “son (of)” and the personal name Rickard (a variant of Richard). The earliest recorded spelling of the name dates back to Scotland 3. Variations of the name include Crok(k)at and Croket 3.
So, the Crockett name has a rich history rooted in Scotland, reflecting both Gaelic and Germanic influences. Wilsonathome1 (talk) 00:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Davy Crockett appears as a character in the musical The Burnt Part Boys, written by Chris Miller & Nathan Tysen, in the song "Davy Crockett". Please consider adding this instance to the "Theatre" section. (2006 world premiere, 2010 Off-Broadway premiere). Thanks. Jkoft (talk) 15:43, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
