I can't say I've ever seen a period account documenting what McGregor wore at the Alamo, but I would refer to Jack Daw here on Xmarks, who had a very nice portrayal of him at a Scottish festival in Texas.

It Dr. Richard Winders, I believe, who served as a historical consultant on the most recent (and probably the most accurate) depiction of the Seige at Bexar who stated that most of the Alamo defenders would have looked like characters from Charles Dickens in dress, not Grizzly Adams!
