BIOGRAPHY: [Broderbund 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 inexistence 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.

Zee, as called by Jesse was the wife and first cousin of Jesse Woodson James. Zee's mother, Mary, was a sister of the Rev. Robert S. James, the father of Jesse and Frank.
Zee's house in 1900 was described as a neat little cottage standing alone on a wide stretch of ground. It was sparsely furnished with a faded carpet on the floor, a picture of her late husband, a small table with a Bible on it, several chairs and starched, lace curtains.
Jesse Jr. and Stella's wedding was held in the parlor of his mothers home, as she was too sick to attend the wedding.
Zerelda died in 1900. Don't know where she was first buried but on 29 June 1902 she finally rested next to Jesse in Mt. Olivet Cem., Kearney, Clay, Mo. She hadn't sufficient funds to pay her debt. Jesse sold her house for $1300.00 in 1901 to pay the bills. After the estate was settled Jesse received $293.00 and Mary received $75.00.
Zerelda married Jesse Woodson James on 24 Apr 1874 in Wife's Sister's Home, Kearney, Clay County, MO.
