The Muster Rolls are located at the Texas General Land Office Archives. Images of the 1835-1836 Muster Rolls (that have been recovered) can be seen at TXGenWeb Texas Muster Rolls. Only those relevant to the Siege of Bexar are shown here, but check TXGenWeb and the Texas USGenWeb Archives in case one was missed.

Wayne DuBose says
The Captain of the last muster roll listed here (255) is Martin Lewis, not M B Leurz. The Republic Donation Voucher for my ancestor Anderson Barclay (who also appears on the muster roll), has it clearly written that he served under Captain Martin Lewis.
Stephani Noland says
My ancestor is also Anderson Barclay. He is believed to have served at the Battle of San Jacinto as well. Have you ever heard any information on his role there? He is not listed as present, but many sources place him with Erasmus “Deaf” Smith’s men at the Battle of San Jacinto.
Wayne DuBose says
Yes, but the same stories about how he helped Deaf Smith blow up Vincent’s bridge. As far as I know, there is no proof that he was there since he does not appear on any of the muster rolls. There is also the wild deer story that was published in the Beaumont Enterprise years ago. The story was handed down from Anderson to his family. Unfortunately, none of it can be proven.
Jimmy Marshall says
Looking for more info on Sherod JDover, serving with Burleson.
Clayton S Cary says
You have a listing for Seth Casey. I believe this should be Seth Carey who was born in 1806 in Vermont and served in the New Orleans Greys at the Seige of Bexar.
