    3. I'm wondering whether anyone out there has read while scanning the local newspapers either Pierce County Herald or the River Falls Journal's from pre or circa 1900 anything about the possibility of the Jesse James gang hiding out in the caves in Pierce County. My Grandpa grew up in the area (long deceased) and told stories of the James gang apparently travelling near the Great River Road along the Mississippi through Pierce county. If anyone has stumbled on similar folklore I'd appreciate hearing from them. He also spoke of the tremendous flash floods Diamond Bluff suffered in those years. Thank you Lori Scharfenberg
