BIOGRAPHY: [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 15, Ed. 1, Tree #1589]
After Robert and Mary married they moved to Kentucky and settled near Adairville, Logan County. They bought a 275-acre farm and this is where Jesse
was born as well as Susan. Robert graduated from Georgetown College in Kentucky in June 1843 and received a Master of Arts Degree in 1847. He was an
ordained Baptist minister in 1839. Two years before he graduated, he met and married Zerelda Cole, who was a student in a Catholic convent in
Lexington, Kentucky. Robert worked his farm during the week with seven faithful Negro servants and served God on Sunday as a preacher, but was never
paid for preaching. Two of the churches he founded are still in existence today. They are the Providence Baptist Church in Clay Co. and the Pisgah
Baptist Church near Excelsior Springs, Mo. Robert was also one of the founders of the William Jewell College in Liberty, Mo. His wife, Zerelda, told
she saw her husband baptize as many as 65 people on one occasion. Jesse was baptized near the same place years later after returning from the Civil
War. It was said by Zerelda, that had not Robert gone to the gold fields of California in 1850 to preach to the miners for a year that Frank and Jesse
would not have had their violent history. Jesse pleaded with his father not to go. It took four months to get there and just three weeks later Robert
died.
BIOGRAPHY: [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 5, Ed. 1, Tree #2180]
Graduated from Georgetown College, Kentucky, and became a Baptist preacher. Moved to Clay Co, MO, and became pastor of New Hope Baptist Church there.
Was a co-founder and trustee of William Jewell College. Went to California to look for gold in 1850 and died shortly thereafter. Was buried in an
unmarked grave in California. (K. G. Lindsay)
Robert married 1, 2 Zerelda
Elizabeth Cole "Zee" daughter of James Cole and Sallie Lindsay on 28 Dec 1841 in Stamping Ground, Scott Co., KY. Zerelda was born
3, 4, 5 on 29 Jan 1825 in Black Horse Tavern, Woodford
Co., KY. She died 6, 7 on 10 Feb 1911 in Oklahoma City,
Cleveland Co., OK. She was buried 8 after 10 Feb 1911 in Mt Olivet Cemetery, Kearney, Clay Co., MO.
BIOGRAPHY: [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 15, Ed. 1, Tree #1589]
After Robert died in 1850 Zerelda Cole James remarried to a Dr. Reuben Samuel. She had four children by Reuben, but before she married Reuben she had
married Benjamin Simms.
Zeralda had died while returning from a visit to Frank in Oklahoma. They took her off the train in OK City and later transferred to Kearney.
The James farm is located near Excelsior Springs, Clay, MO.
From this marriage came several notes of interest. Frances Peters Inskeep, niece of Simms, married Coleman Purcell Younger of Clay County and moved to
San Jose, California. A nephew, named for the Younger, was the outlaw Cole Younger. Mary, the younger sister of Frances married Martin Ringo and also
went to California. Their son, John Peters, was the "Johnny Ringo" of Tombstone, Arizona fame. Zerelda was therefore, by marriage, the great
aunt of the Youngers and Ringo and hers sons cousins, but only by marriage. Also, another strange marriage was another distant relationship. Adaline
Younger, who married James Lewis Dalton, became the mother of Bob, Grant and Emmett, the core of the famous Dalton Gang, was the half-sister of
Coleman Purcell Younger. This made the James boys, the Youngers, Ringo and the Daltons distant cousins. And further coincidence is revealed that Bruce
Younger, half-brother of Coleman, married Maybelle Reed, better known as Belle Starr.
Zerelda's hand was blown off and her youngest child (Archie-8 years old) was killed by a bomb that was thrown into her home at night by Pinkerton
detectives who were seeking to kill or capture her "outlaw" sons. For this cowardly deed, Zerelda and her family were given a lifetime pass
on the railroad. She made good use of the pass. When she couldn't find enough of her family she would "adopt" neighbors as family. They said
she had a comic spirit always at hand. She had attended St. Catherine's Academy in Lexington, Kentucky and met Robert James there.
BIOGRAPHY: [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 11, Ed. 1, Tree #0789]
At the age of fourteen (1839) Zerelda entered St. Catherine's Academy for women in Lexington, Ky. She met her husband, Robert, at a religious revival.
Strong, domineering, outspoken, and fiercely protective of her surviving children (4 of eight), Zerelda had the size to back it up--5'8" and over
200 lbs. She married and buried three husbands to boot!
