Peter Stines,

If you are serious about outlining a study of Colonel L.M. Martin's 5th Texas Partisan Rangers, please make sure that you mention the 10th Texas Cavalry Battalion, Bourland's Border Regiment, Major J.L. Randolph, the Brush Battalion, and Oxford Lake of North Texas.
.
Some of this Martin information can be found in THE BOURLAND PAPERS that I transcribed, interpreted, and indexed for my 1,022-page book. Thus far, I'm the first to document and make sense of these events.
