Notes for JESSE WOODSON JAMES:
Jesse Woodson James was a bandit who robbed banks and trains in Missouri and nearby states. He was born in Clay, County, Missouri, and grew up on a farm. In the Civil War, he and his older brother Frank Joined Confederate guerrilla bands

In 1866 James formed a robber band with his brother Frank, Coleman Younger, and others. They robbed banks in small towns, always carrying off the money in a grain sack. In Iowa, in 1873, they robbed their first train. In 1876 the band, then numbering eight, tried to rob a bank in Northfield, Minn. Citizens fought them off killing three and capturing three of the bandits. Only Jesse and Frank James escaped. After three years, they went back to robbing trains. In 1881, Governor Thomas Crittenden of Missouri offered a $5,000 reward for the arrest of either brother.

Late in 1881, Jesse James moved to St. Joseph, Mo., where he went by the name of Tom Howard and posed as a cattle buyer. Five months later he was shot in the back of the head by Robert Ford, a young man who had recently joined his band and turned traitor.

Notes for JOHN SINGLETON MOSBY:
John Singleton Mosby: In January 1863 Confederate Major J.E.B. Stuart, with Lee, detailed one of Stuart's best scouts, John S. Mosby, and fifteen men to operate within Union lines in northern Virginia. From this original nucleus, the unit evolved into the 43rd Battalion of Virginia Cavalry or Mosby's Partisan Rangers. During a Span of roughly twenty-eight months, the 43rd Battalion was a matchless body of guerrillas, in turn becoming probably the most renowned combat unit of the Civil War. The fighting unit was so hated by Ulysses S. Grant that he ordered any captured Ranger to be summarily executed without trial.

By the end of the Civil War, in April 1865, the Rangers stood unvanquished . All Federal counter operations against them had failed and, once the principle armies of the Confederacy had surrendered or had been brought to bay, Mosby disbanded his command instead of accepting terms of surrender. Such a choice fit both Mosby and the men he led..(Mosby Rangers by Jeffery D. West, Pregace)
