The Compiled Service Record of one card in Sims' 9th Cavalry reads: "M.L. Wolf; Company A; Residence, Grapevine, Tex." Appears on a Roll for Prisoners of War, May 13, 1865.

INCORRECTLY PUBLISHED: Stephen S. Kirk's A THOUSAND TEXANS, MEN OF THE 9TH CAVALRY incorrectly lists on page 69: "M.L. Wolf, enlisted March 26, 1864 at Tarrant, Hopkins County, Texas"

One "M.L. Wolf" is listed in Harmon's Militia, Hopkins County, May-Oct 1861 as:
.
Wolf, M.L. .. Pvt .. 18 .. May 27,61-Oct 2,61 .. $ 91.83
.
I did not find this "M.L. Wolf" in the census, but did find his parents and siblings. ..My Name Index entry is immediately below, but that may not be enough info to find him in the records so I have included more info about this gent and his wife named "Bailey" who I could not find in the census, either.

WOLF, Marshall L. Wolf (1842 AL-1892) m-M.M. Bailey; Crump's 32d Cav, Co B (Hopkins Co, TST)
.
WOLF, Marshall L. Wolf (1842 Calhoun Co AL-1892 Hopk Co TX) m-1858 to Margaret M. Bailey (1847-1922), 3 ch; son of M.M. Whiteside and Henry Washington Woolf (1820-1889) of 1870 Hopkins cen p151; Crump's 32d Cav, Co B (Hopkins Co, TST)

I found the "Martin Luther Wolf" on Mike Patterson's web page:

Michael Patterson of Colleyville TX, deserves our praise for his most informative web page (with tentacles) that would fill a 500-page book. ..Mike elected to post this info online. ..I have read through each entry and am humbled by the amount of research he did to compile this GREAT piece of work (a web page seems to dismiss the importance of his STUPENDOUS work). ..Keep in mind that the scant records of Tarrant County do not include the 1860 US census, but does include part of the 1850 Navarro County cen. ..I sense that Mike Patterson has committed to memory the Tarrant County "Tax records" and "Deed Records" but of course, he has probably drawn maps of his section of Tarrant County. ..Again, my hat is off to Mike Patterson and I hope he will be recognized by his peers.
