    Notes:

    He moved to Logan County, Kentucky. His mother, Elizabeth Woodson Mims, executed a power or attorney on December 22, 1824, authorizing Robert "to demand of Henry G. Bibb, of Kentucky, a negro girl named Eady, and retain her for me and keep her as his own until I call for her."

    This Robert was the grandfather of Zerelda Mims who became the wife of Jesse James.
    In Kansas and Kentucky the conflict between Confederates and Abolitionists was characterized by cruel and bitter guerrilla warfare. Jesse James, his mother, who was Zerelda Cole James, and his brother, Frank, were zealous supporters of the Confederate cause. They were vociferous in their denunciations of neighbors who espoused the leadership of John Brown and others.

    For several months Jesse served in a pseudo-military outfit and was wounded in battle.

    He was marked for death by his political enemies. On two different occasions he was ambushed and shot through the left lung.

    After one of his wounds Zerelda Mims, a cousin, whom he had known in childhood, nursed him. After an extended courtship they were married.

    While nursing his injuries he became bitter against society, finally concluding he'd become the image his enemies had created. After Pinkerton detectives threw a heavy bomb into his mother's home, destroying the house and severing her right arm, Jesse became one of the cleverest robbers known to the criminal history of this country, and developed into a sadistic murderer.

    J. married Mary Lucille "Lucy" POOR on 6 Apr 1788 in Goochland, Goochland, Virginia. Mary (daughter of Abraham POOR and Judith GARDNER) was born on 13 Jan 1772 in Lil Byrd Creek, Goochland, Virginia; was christened on 29 Mar 1772 in St James Northam Parish, Goochland, Virginia, British Colonial America; died on 23 Jul 1877 in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri.
