Dime Novel
  • After the war, Frank and his brother, Jesse, were members of the James-Younger Gang, feared murderers, train robbers and bank robbers.
  • Their exploits were made famous and romanticized by the sale of dime novels.

Alexander Franklin James was born 10 January 1843 in Kearney, Clay County, Missouri. He was the oldest child of Robert James and Zerelda Cole. In the 1850 census Franklin (age 10) was in Platte Township, Clay, Missouri, United States.[1] "Frank" was listed as a 10 year old son, but was more likely around the age of 7 or 8. His father was a Baptist minister, and would die very soon after this census was recorded. Robert James followed the miners to California during the "Gold Rush." He had planned to prospect and preach to the crowds. Unfortunatly, he contracted Cholera and died a few days after arriving.[2]


Robert and Zerelda had 4 children Family Bible Record[2]
Mother: Zerelda
Father: Robert
  1. Alexander Franklin James (10 January 1843-18 February 1915)
  2. Robert Reuben James, (19 July 1845-27 August 1845)
  3. Jesse Woodson James (5 September 1847-3 April 1882)
  4. Susan Lavinia (James) Parmer (25 November 1849-3 March 1889)

After the death of his father, Frank's mother, Zerelda, married Benjamin Simms in 1852.[3] This marriage only lasted a couple of years, and Zarelda was widowed a second time. Her third marriage in 1855 was to Dr. Reuben Samuel.[4]

In the 1860 census Alexander (age 16) was in Washington Township, Clay, Missouri, United States. He was living in his stepfather's home[5]

From his mother's third marriage, Frank had 5 half siblings:

  1. Sarah Louise Samuel
  2. John Thomas Samuel
  3. Fannie Quantrill Samuel
  4. Archibald Peyton Samuel
  5. Mary Samuel
Frank and Jesse, 1872, Carolinda, Illinois

In 1861, at the start of the Civil War, Frank was 18 years old, and Missouri was a contested border state. The old "Southern" state had an influx of Northern and European settlers in the years just before the war. So the state was a mixed bag when it came to loyalties. But the James and Samuel families were pro-Confederate. Frank joined the Missouri State Guard which besieged Lexington, Missouri in September of that year. Frank contracted the measles, and when the Confederate troops fled, he was left behind. After being arrested, the Union paroled him, and sent him home.[6]

He didn't stay home for long, and joined William Quantrill's band of pro-Confederate guerillas.[7] They rode the countryside raiding citizens and Union troops. One raid in Lawrence, Kansas, 200 citizens were slaughtered. Lawrence Invaded[8][6] By this time, Frank's brother, Jesse, was old enough to join their cause, and together joined "Bloody Bill" Anderson's group. Their actions as guerrillas led to their family being exiled from Missouri.[9]

After the war, Frank and his brother Jesse, never settled back down into a normal life. They were resentful of the Confederacy's defeat, and turned to a life of crime. (A more extensive list of their crimes can be found on Jesse's profile) Together with the Younger brothers, they formed a gang, The James-Younger gang. The brothers robbed banks, trains and other heists. Some were more personal than others.

Some of their targets were for revenge. Killing to serve as pay back for offenses done during the war. Such as the murder of John Sheets. His death was mistaken identity. Jesse James thought he was killing Major Samuel Cox, who had killed "Bloody Bill" Anderson.[10]

On 26 January 1875, Pinkterton Agents got word that the James brothers were staying at the family farm. Around 1 in the morning, the agents raided the home. During the fight, a shell was thrown into the house. Upon exploding, it severed the right arm of Zerelda Samuel, and killed young Archie Samuel. Archie, the half-brother of Frank and James, was only 13 years old. Their mother, Zerelda, recovered from her wounds, and lived around 30 more years.

Amid all the chaos and crime in his life, Frank managed to woo and win a well-educated society girl from Independence, Missouri.

Frank married Annie Ralston about 1875 in Omaha, Nebraska. This date is found in a newspaper article about their elopement. Narrative of his Elopement.[11]

In September of 1875, a notice appeared in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The notice read:[12]

Married to a James Boy
[From the Moberly Enterprise-Monitor, July 25th]
A private letter from Independence con-
veys to us the information that Miss Annie
Ralston, a handsome and accomplished young
lady of Independence, MO., ran away with
and married one of the James boys a few days
ago. She was educated at Independence
College and is quite a belle wherever known
having been a successful school teacher in the
section of country in which she lived.

Frank and Annie had 2 children:

  1. Robert Franklin James (6 February 1877-15 November 1959)[13]
  2. Unnamed Daughter James (2 February 1885- )[14]

Married life didn't slow down Frank or Jesse James. Frank and Jesse spent 16 years in their lawless profession, and were never caught.

An article was written up after the gang robbed a train on 5 July 1876. Train Robbery[15]

7 September 1876, The James and Younger Gang, robbed a Northfield bank, killing the cashier named Haywood. During this robbery, 2 members of the gang were killed, Bill Chadwell and Charley Pitts. Northfield, MN Robbery[16] On the run after this robbery, the Younger brothers were captured on 21 September 1876. Capture of the Younger Brothers[17]

In the 1880 census Frank (age 40), Farmer, was the married head of household in Davidson, Tennessee, United States.[18] He and his brother, Jesse, are using aliases. Frank was known as Ben Woodson, and Jesse was known as George Howard. Later this year, Frank will go to trial for his crimes, and several people will testify. A man from Tennessee named W. S. Earthman testified that he knew Frank James as Ben Woodson.[19]

The train robbery in Winston, Missouri on 15 July 1881, was the beginning of the end for the James brothers. Robbing the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific train, they killed the conductor, William Westfall and passenger Frank McClellan. Train Robbery[20]

The railway, tired of the elusive brothers, funded a reward offered by the governor. Reward Offered[21]

Warrant for his arrest for the robbery of the Pacific Railroad Company in 1881

The James brother's life of crime came to an end on 3 April 1882. Jesse James was gunned down by a trusted member of his own gang, Bob Ford. Ford turned on Jesse for the $10,000 bounty on his head. Jesse James Killed[22]

Six months later, Frank, ready for a quiet life, turned himself in. Worried he might meet his brother's fate, he took his chances with the courts. He was tried and aquitted, and settled down with his wife away from the spotlight. Frank Surrenders[23]

Frank's trial was coined "The Great Trial," and began on 21 July 1883. He was being charged with the murder of William Westfall and Frank McMillan during the robbery of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific passenger car at Winston, Missouri on 15 July 1881.[24] The trial carried on until 6 September 1883 when the jury brought back a verdict of not guilty. Frank James Acquitted[25]

In the 1910 census Frank (age 68) was the married head of household in Delaware, Caddo, Oklahoma, United States.[26]

Alexander died on 18 February 1915 in Clay, Missouri, United States. Death Certificate[27]

Frank was mentioned on a memorial in Hill Park Cemetery, Independence, Jackson County, Missouri, United States with a death date of 18 February 1915.[28]

Paternity Claims

  • Elvira Timms
    • There is a story in the family of Malvina (Miles) Timms Morgan Meadows, that her daughter, Elvira Timms was the daughter of Frank James. It is said that Franklin Timms, from Tennessee, was an alias for Frank James.
    • Malvina and Franklin Timms were married in 1854, Frank James would have been 11 at the time.
    • Frank was not living a life of crime in the early years, and would not have needed an alias until much later.
    • Census records do not match up with Malvina and Frank James.
    • Elvira's date of birth is most likely 1855, not the 1859 recorded on her death record
    • Another tree suggested that Elvira was the daughter of Charles A. Morgan, Malvina's second husband, and C. A. Morgan was the alias for Frank James.
    • Malvina and C.A. Morgan were married in 1858, Frank James would have been 15 years old at this time.
  • Paternity Claim of Elvira Timms: Debunked
    • Research by Lilly Martin
    • Thomas Green James and Elvira share the ancestor of Thomas B. James, the son of the immigrant ancestor of the James family (James-537).
    • Elvira's family had stories handed down that they related closely with Alexander Franklin James-759, and this was incorrect, even though both were located in Nashville, TN. But, they are both the FIFTH generation down from the shared ancestor, Thomas B. James.
    • This makes the TIMMS family story partly correct, and partly false. Other family stories said Elvira's father was "an Old Man", and this proved correct, as Thomas Green James was a much older man, who lived just doors away from the Timms family.
    • She was legally a Timms and not a James. Her legal father was Timms-10621.
  • Emma Chase
    • There is a rumor that Frank and Jesse spent several years in Devil's Nest, Nebraska, and each married a Native American woman, and each had a child.
    • The children were born in 1870, and carried the last name Chase, since that was the alias the brothers were using.
    • Is it told the brothers left Nebraska in July 1870, and never went back

Research Notes

  • There is no evidence of a marriage to Malvina Miles. I left notes on her profile, but she should be removed. Daughter Elvira James was the daughter of Malvina, and she should be removed as well.
    • Looked on Malvina's profile, and she has another message on her profile from 2020, saying she needs to be removed from Frank's profile. Since this is an ongoing issue, I am going to go ahead and remove her profile. There is no evidence in Frank's history to support another wife, especially at such a young age as 16 or younger (age he would have been if he was the father of Elvira)
  • There was a census record from 1870 attached to this profile, but after some research, I found it was actually for another man named Alexander Campbell James. He married Laura Nally, and they lived in Missouri. I removed the record.
  • Frank James seems to be confused often with Alexander Campbell James from Pike County, Missouri who married Laura Nalley. These 2 men cannot be the same person, because they appear at different places in the same census record. A. C. James was the son of John James and Elizabeth Thompson
  • He has not been located in the 1870 or 1900 census as of this date. (Mutimer-76 03:07, 12 May 2023 (UTC))
  • I found a duplicate profile James-18761, but I am trying to get the father attached cleaned up before we merge. The father will have to be merged as well, but right now he is attached to the incorrect parents. (Mutimer-76 01:04, 13 May 2023 (UTC))
