Hi, All, My paternal grandmother, Laura Mock Scott, always insisted that she was the fourth cousin of Frank and Jesse James. Now, according to Screven County marriage records, Laura's grandfather, John A. W. Cubbedge, married Mary Ann James in 1844, so that may have been so. Also, I remember reading somewhere that Frank and Jesse's father's family were originally from Georgia, but I have not been able to substantiate that. Lastly, in a letter written in 1935 by my great-grandfather, John Randolph Mock, he stated that his mother-in-law (Mary Ann Cubbedge) was "a Jewess orphan named Emanuel, who had been adopted by the Evans family". If this is confusing to you, you can rest assured that I am as well! I hope that this helps someone though. Happy hunting! Scotty **************Start the year off right.
