Has anyone heard stories of Jesse or Frank James playing the fiddle for barn dances in the Humphreys County area? He rented the W.H. Link farm in Humphreys County in 1877 under the name J.D. Howard. This request regards an old family story. I need corroboration that one of them played the fiddle. Any stories about his activities in the area would be greatly appreciated. This may have been in old newspaper clippings. My relatives were Garrett’s and lived on their farm between Bruceton and Buena Vista. My Great Grandfather, Jeremiah Garrett, also owned the Mill at Garrettsburg.I am also looking for pictures of Garrettsburg.Thank you very much. Don Ayer
