"The Thirty-Sixth Texas Cavalry, the highest officially numbered Texas Cavalry regiment, was organized in late 1863 at Belton, Texas. For some unknown reason, the regiment was frequently known as the Thirty-Second Texas Cavalry. There was a previously organized regiment with that designation and there was no connection between the two units. (To further complicate identification, the Thirty-Second Texas Cavalry was often incorrectly known as the Fifteenth Texas Cavalry, and, needless to add, there was another unit by that number."

"The 36th Cavalry Regiment [also called 32nd Regiment] completed its organization in Boston, Texas, late in 1863. It contained 823 men of which many were from Sulphur Springs and Belton, and Caldwell and Gonzales counties. The regiment was assigned to H. Bee's and Bagby's Brigade, Trans-Mississippi Department, and was involved in numerous engagements at Louisiana including Mansfield and Pleasant Hill. Later it moved to Galveston, Texas and there surrendered in June, 1865. The field officers were Colonel Peter C. Woods, Lieutenant Colonels Nat. Benton and W.O. Hutchison, and Major Stokely M. Holmes. "
