Jesse James House

texture

Named because Jesse James would sleep in the yard outside of this, his friend’s home, while he and his men would travel from Missouri to Logan County, Kentucky to see his fiancé Zerelda Mimms. After a nine-year engagement and traveling to see her, they married in 1874. This 1860s home is currently under reconstruction.
