Do many families from MO have a family "story" of being related to the James' boys? I would love to hear more about their family and members of their "gang". It has been reported through 2 branches of the Daniel P. Shepherd family of Ste Gen, and Crawford Cos. MO, (Late TX and IL) that there is a connection to the James', but I can't figure where. I think there was a Shepherd that rode with them, but I have not been able to find out anything about his family. What little I have found almost led me to believe he was unmarried. Does any one know of any web sites or serious James researchers that could shed some light on these men? Thanks for any suggestions!
