John Austin Wharton (1806–38)
John Austin Wharton (April 1806 - December 17, 1838) was distinguished as a statesman, a lawyer, and a soldier. He served as Adjutant General at the Battle of San Jacinto. In a eulogy at his grave, Republic of Texas President David G. Burnet said of him, “The keenest blade on the field of San Jacinto is broken.” He died a bachelor on December 17, 1838, while serving as a member of the Texas Congress. His nephew, John A. Wharton, who would go on to be a Confederate Army general, was named for him.

John Austin Wharton was born in Nashville, Tennessee, in April 1806. He became an orphan in 1816 and was raised, along with his four siblings by his uncle Jesse Wharton who ensured that he received a classical education. His older brother, William H. Wharton, preceded him in immigrating to colonial Texas in 1827. John Austin Wharton arrived in Texas between 1829 and 1833.〔( ''Handbook of Texas Online'' )〕〔(''Southwestern Historical Quarterly Online'', Volume 19, No.3 )〕
