I think that this is him, age 34 in the 1880 census: 1880 Census Place: District 9, Kansas City, Jackson, Missouri Source: FHL Film 1254692 National Archives Film T9-0692 Page 282A Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Chas.

I don't know who the 18 year-old Nany Mimms would be. Nancy Catherine has correct info for parents (both from VA), but Thomas has wrong info -- looks like the transcriber copied that from the niece. But then, I don't guarantee that this is the correct Thomas Mims, either.

Merry Christmas Glynda, I have missed you! I have Thomas Martin Mims, s/o John Wilson Mims b. 1808 VA d. 1870 Kansas City, Missouri. Thomas was born 11-27-1846 Logan Co KY. His father came to Logan Co KY from VA when Thomas was a small child, along with his father Robert Mims of Goochland Co VA and his mother Lucy Poor. John Wilson Mims left Logan Co KY before the War Between the States, and settled in Missouri, he operated a boarding house at Harlem, Missouri. The family of Rev. Robert Sallee James, who were neighbors of the Mims family in Logan Co KY, also moved to Missouri in the same time frame. They settled at Kearney, Clay Co MO, and that is where Jesse Woodson James was born 9-5-1847, he died 4-3-1882 St. Joseph, MO and is buried on the James Farm in Kearney, MO. I do NOT have further info on Thomas Martin Mims, who was an older brother of Zeralda Amanda Mims, the wife of Jesse James. Did they settle in Missouri as well?? I would like to know. I do have a relative in Lima, OHIO named Thomas Giberson, and his sister was Etta Mae Giberson, and I do have their ancestry. Any chance of a connection? Those names are in the 1880 census at Lima, OH. Let me know if I can help at all. My grandfather descends from Drury Shadrach Woodson Mims, the paternal Uncle of Mrs. Jesse James.
