(David Thomas "came to Texas in 1835 and joined the U.S. Independent Volunteers Cavalry Co. organized at Nacogdoches on Dec. 10, 1835. At the request of Francis W Johnson, the Military Affairs Committee of the General Council recommended a volunteer expedition against Matamoros in Jan. 1836 and David Thomas was commissioned 1st lieutenant for the expedition. [para.] Thomas was one of the four representatives from the municipality of Refugio to the Convention of 1836 at Washington-on-the-Brazos and there signed the Declaration of Independence. On March 17, the Convention elected Thomas, who was evidently a lawyer, the ad interim attorney general of the Republic. When Thomas J. Rusk, secretary of war, left the cabinet to join the army, Thomas was made acting secretary of war, thus holding two positions at the same time.")
