Philip Dimmitt (1801–1841) was an officer in the Texian Army during the Texas Revolution. Born in Kentucky, Dimmitt moved to Texas in 1823 and soon operated a series of trading posts. After learning that Mexican General Martín Perfecto de Cos was en route to Texas in 1835 to quell the unrest, Dimmitt proposed that the general be kidnapped on his arrival at Copano. The plan was shelved when fighting broke out at Gonzales, but by early October, 1835, it had been resuscitated by a group of volunteers at Matamoros. Not knowing that Cos had already departed for San Antonio de Bexar, this group decided to corner Cos at Presidio La Bahia in Goliad. Dimmitt joined them en route, and participated in the battle of Goliad.

  • Philip Dimmitt (1801–1841) foi um oficial do Exército Texano durante a Revolução do Texas. Nascido em Kentucky, Dimmitt se mudou para o Texas em 1823. Após saber que o General mexicano Martín Perfecto de Cos estava seguindo para o Texas a fim de suprimir o tumulto, Dimmitt propôs que o General fosse sequestrado assim que chegasse na Baía de Copano. O plano foi engavetado quando a luta começou em Gonzales, mas no início de outubro foi ressuscitado por um grupo de voluntários em Matamoros. Não sabendo que Cos já havia partido para San Antonio de Bexar, o grupo decidiu atacar Cos no Presidio La Bahía, em Goliad. Dimmitt se juntou a eles no caminho e participou da Batalha de Goliad. (pt)
