    Notes 
    • Thought you might like some more info on John Wolf.
      Her married Phebe Ann (Wells) Howard 3 Nov 1864 in Meigs County, Ohio. She was the widow of Joshua W Howard. She was the daughter of James Wells and Esther Elizabeth Decker. Phebe and Joshua were listed in Meigs County 1860 Census. Joshua died 03 Nov 1862 and was buried in the Browning Cemetery in Portland, Ohio.
      John and Phebe appear in the 1870 Census of Center, Doniphan, Kansas, USA. He appears to have died around 16 June 1873 because this is the date Phebe filed for his Civil War pension as his widow. Phebe appears in the 1880 Census of Washington, Buchanan, Missouri, USA as Phoeba Woolf. Appears in 1 Mar 1895 Census of Elwood, Doniphan, Kansas, USA with son William. Appears in 1 March 1905 Elwood, Doniphan, Kansas, USA’'.
      Phebe dies 06 Dec 1906 in Doniphan, Kansas, USA.
      I have confirmed this is as the correct John Wolf though my Ancestry DNA. Peter Wolf is my 3rd Great Grandfather and William H Wolf was my 2nd Great Grandfather and his son Isaac was my 1st Great Grandfather.
      I hope this helps with the West Virginia Pioneers.
      Thanks for your time
