This section is bizarre in that it has been revised, moderated and edited several times, but contains no sources, citations of any kind, and indeed, directly contradicts itself in an apocryphal, slightly schizophrenic manner.

It is as if the article is arguing with itself. I can find no sources.

For what it's worth, this information is just about verbatim what is told to visitors by tour guides on the current tour of the James Farm & Museum in Kearney (seems like the only real contradiction is burn marks on the fireplace? I saw none when I visited in spring 2014, but it's dark in the 'fireplace room'.) I would imagine someone at the museum would be able to verify, will add a cite if I can find the information in written form. Tnhybrid (talk) 21:25, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OCTOBER 14, 2015 4:58 PM THE TRUTH ABOUT JESSIE AND FRANK JAMES JESSIE AND FRANK JAMES WERE FIRST COUSINS OF MY GRANDDAD JESSE LEE BRADSHAW, FROM KENTUCKY. THEIR MOTHER WAS HIS SISTER. AS I WAS GROWING UP, I HEARD ABOUT THEM OFTEN, BUT AS A KID, DID NOT REALIZE WHO THEY WERE. I WAS ALWAYS TOLD THEY WERE NOT BAD BUT THE GOVERNMENT OF THAT DAY MADE THEM "OUTLAWS". JESSIE, AS I REMEMBER USED TO STEAL FROM THE RICH TO GIVE TO THE POOR. THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD AND WHAT I HEARD WHEN IN THE DALLAS, TEXAS EVENNGS THE FAMILY WOULD SIT OUTSIDE AND TALK TO ONE ANOTHER AND NEIGHBORS ABOUT THINGS IN THE AREA. GRANDAD (WE CALLED HIM GRANDPA) DROVE A WAGON WITH HORSES. HE PASSED AWAY IN THE 1960'S AND WAS ABOUT 88. HE WAS A GOOD GUY. MY GRANDMA WAS AMERICAN INDIAN, HER MOTHER WAS ASIAN, GERMAN AND HER DAD WAS A 'BLACK' INDIAN, A LOGGER ON THE RIVER, CALLED "BLACKIE' BECAUSE HE WAS SO DARK SKINNED. HIS GIVEN NAME WAS DANIEL WILSON. MY MOM LEFT THIS WORLD IN 2012 AT 911/2 KILLED BY THE DOCTORS IN THE HOSPITAL BY TOO MUCH MEDICATION ETC. SHE WAS A PRECIOUS MOM, WOMAN AND GOOD WIFE. HER DAD, JESSIE LEE BRADSHAW IS/WAS THE FIRST COUSINS OF THE JAMES BOYS...SO I GUESS THAT MADE THEM HER COUSINS.. THIS IS THE TRUTH THAT WAS TOLD TO US CHILDREN. THERE ARE SOME OF OUR FAMILY STILL ON THIS EARTH WITH MORE INFORMATION THAT I HAVE. IT SEEMS LIKE MY DAD, WHO WAS 16 YEARS OLDER THAN MY MOM, MET THE JAMES BOYS. IT SEEMS LIKE I REMEMBER HEARING ABOUT THEM FROM DADDY. I DO REMEMBER PEOPLE COMING TO OUR WINDOW WITH CHAINS AND WAKING UP DADDY. WE WERE POOR AND DID NOT HAVE LOCKS ON THE WINDOWS OR FANS TO COOL, SO IN THE SUMMER, WE SLEPT WITH THE WINDOWS OPEN. DADDY WOULD JUST TELL THEM TO GO AWAY AND THEY DID. I SAW MY DADDY 'CUT' A TORNADO HEADED FOR OUR HOUSE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE AND IT WENT AROUND OUR HOUSE. DADDY PRAYED AND STRETCHED OUT HIS ARMS AND DIRECTED THAT TORNADO AWAY FROM US. MY MOM PRAYED AND KEPT US HEALTHY. WELL, THAT IS OFF THE SUBJECT OF JESSIE JAMES AND FRANK JAMES, BUT IT IS STILL FAMILY. LOOK AT THE GOVERNMENT TODAY...LOOK AT OUR WORLD. I BELIEVE JESSIE JAMES AND FRANK JAMES BELIEVED THEY WERE DOING GOOD FOR PEOPLE, BUT THE "NO GOODERS" WANTED THEM OUT OF THE WAY. THERE WAS A STORE CALLED SANGER BROTHERS, WHERE EVERYONE SHOPPED DOWNTOWN. ONE OF THEM WORKED THERE FROM TIME TO TIME. I WASN'T THERE, SO I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE...ONLY WHAT I REMEMBER AND HEARD AS A CHILD.00:16, 15 October 2015 (UTC)~~ SOURCE: MY FAMILY HISTORY — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.108.130.152 (talk)
