Biography

Dr. Thomas L. Wolfe was born on 16 December 1868 in Ivanhoe, Linn Co., IA, His headstone and other family history documents show 1872, however he was clearly listed and age two on the 1870 census.1,2 He married Wilma F. Meyers. He died on 13 February 1951 in Mt. Vernon, Linn Co., IA,

Obituary (Findagrave.com):

Doctor Thomas L. Wolfe, MD, was born on the Wolfe farm outside Mount Vernon, in Linn County, Iowa.

There is some confusion as to dates of birth in family accounts.

The 1870 US Census for Franklin Township gives his age as two years old.

The 1880 US Census for Linn County, Iowa records Thomas Lindly Wolfe's age as 12. the 1900 US Census reports his age as 30. The American Medical Association also gives an approximate confirmation of the latter date in a biographical sketch.

the biography commemorating his three terms in the Iowa State Legislature gives his date of birth as December 16, 1872.

Doctor Wolfe was educated at the Iowa City Academy, the University of Iowa at Iowa City, and at the University of Kentucky.

Also active in business and real estate with his brother, Doctor John D. Wolfe (1861-1921), Doctor Thomas Wolfe was a community leader and a public servant.

Doctor Wolfe was known for his habit of forgetting to charge patients who were of modest circumstances and limited means.

He served a term as Mayor of Mount Vernon in 1914 and was elected to the Iowa State Legislature as a Republican in 1922, 1924, and 1928, serving from January 8, 1923 until January 13, 1929.

A now forgotten footnote was the Doctor's cordial acquaintance with a Missouri cousin, Missouri State Senator Henry Cain (1878-1954.)

The Missouri lawyer was the son-in-law of one of Doctor Wolfe's aunts, and a dyed in the wool Southern Democrat.



He was buried in February 1951 in Mt. Vernon Cemetery, Mt. Vernon, Linn Co., IA, Findagrave #76737214.
Dr. Thomas L. Wolfe lived in April 1940 in 208 West First Street, Mt. Vernon, Linn Co., IA.
