As a hired hand in response to Matt Hamlin and Dallas Hunt in January of
2010, I was pressured into a seek and smear mission in retaliation to
their posts on Genforum. From there it went to various historical
discussions and to Delphi going as far as to smear their friends. Little
did I know about the consequences of my actions and I apologize for all
the trouble I've caused everyone here, especially to that of Betty Duke
and Greg Ellison.

"I asked JV these question and his answers are in the next post:
Jared,
I appreciate your efforts and I have a long list of questions.
1. Who hired you?
2. Are you positive Fran Bolton and Sally Anderson Goodson are not
aliases for Carol Holmes?
3. Who is Gibson Moore and where is he from?
4. Is the James Farm involved including Marvin Leslie, Scott Cole and
Terry Crews or did you use their names?
5. Do you know if there is still a credible threat to my family?
6. Why aren't you signing your post with your real name?
7. How were you pressured and who did it?
8. Who's the top dog causing all of this.
9. Why did you leave LoneJack off of the list?
10. How much is Frank Huguelet involved in this. You mention two of his
buddies and I know he is their leader?
I had this figured out a long time ago through some investigating that I
had done. I knew how you were involved through your acting career and
that they planned all along for you to take the fall and still do.
Thanks,
Greg Ellison"

"No problem, Greg. I'm just glad I can finally get this off my chest.
I'm tired of playing their games.
1. Eric James.
2. I believe Carol is Fran. I remember a few posts on Sally's Delphi
site when Fran responded to questions made to Carol and then quickly
deleted them and then came back on as Carol to leave the final response.
She realized what user name she was using at the time. But Carol is
definitely not Sally. Sally really had no interest in "Jesse James"
matters. She came along to help Rollie with the Jay Longely/William
Anderson thing because they are supposedly kin.
3. Gibson Moore as "GibMoore" was a member on Butch's site some years
ago. Not sure where he is now but I got some private messages before
from him on Delphi to aid in the attacks on you and your friends. He
could be Eric James, Michael, or even Frank Huguelet in disguise. He was
very pushy.
4. No. I remember Butch even banning Eric James a couple years ago.
5. None. Truth be told I'm not that kind of guy and you're more
protected than you know even if there was a credible threat. But I will
tell you this. Eric James spun a web of crap and I thought it was this
big game. Frank Huguelet was and still is his side man. AlexNelson is an
alias of his. He paraded around as various user names and made those
threats on your forum. He was hysterical about it. But there is no
threat to you or your family.
6. I sign it either jv or just J.
7. I was doing research on the old west and Jesse James as a class
assignment. I got to know Eric James through his site and that's when he
went on about you and Betty and everyone else months after getting to
know him. He was pissed that Butch banned him from Delphi and he claimed
you were after him and he needed a little help fighting back. He offered
money and credentials to my school if I went along with it. Venable,
Graf, Moore, Dodd, Blankenship, Mathis, Goodson, Fran/Carol and Rollie
all went along with it saying they could get me good marks and build my
rep. And since I knew too much about their plan to smear you guys they
threatened to smear my name and mess things up for me academically if
any of that got out. It was a really weird situation. And as odd as it
was, they tried to be "nice" about threatening me. Little did they know
that the FBI saw it all.
8. Eric James. But Frank Huguelet is his "behind the curtain" go to guy.
They're both pulling the strings.
9. He didn't get involved. He actually liked you. At least before your
falling out. It's obvious he's been swayed by those crooks too.
10. You got it right. Up until the FBI got involved he backed away. But
he's still out there ready to pounce when the time comes. He insulted me
pretty good and threatened to kick my ass when I told the FBI everything
and told Eric James off. Well, that and when I told them that I wanted
nothing to do with their crap anymore. They didn't take that very well.
Like you said, I think a lot of this was obvious. But I'm not pursuing
an acting career. I did some theater in college and high school but I
worked in media for a time, too. I did some independent stuff on the
side but nothing anymore. I recently fell on some hard economic times
and "career" really isn't in the equation anymore. It sucks.
I won't take the fall anymore. They know it and so does the FBI. Those
sons of bitches are being watched now.
Anything else let me know.

A picture of the front and back of the Ebay Picture I
won:
This important postcard
was obviously made from the original copy of the original photo of the
James family that I recently won on Ebay. One can determine it's a copy
of the photo I won by the typewritten caption around the border of my
original copy (pictured above) which clearly states that it is a
REVERSED image of the original picture. Therefore the image on the
postcard is in its original state but, whomever identified Jesse and
Frank James mistakenly identified them according to the reversed image.
Jesse James is the "tall man with the dark mustache" seated on the
ground on the left in the postcard. Frank James is seated on the right
wearing the white suit next to his bride Anna "Annie" Ralston. This
postcard proves that long before I ever published my first book on this
subject, (Jesse James Lived & Died In Texas, 1998), my great-grandfather
had, unbeknownst to me, already been publicly identified as Jesse James.

Authenticity Statement
Dallas Hunt posted the following message on Greg
Ellison's Jesse James Photo Discussion Forum:
"This photo is located in The William Clarke Quantrill Man Reunions
compiled by Don Hale. It was a newspaper photo of a Quantrill Reunion
that appeared in the Kansas City Post in 1921. James Courtney is clearly
visible in the photo between two Quantrill veterans. Miss Lizzie Wallace
who held the reunions for over twenty years is the woman in the back.
Jesse James AKA James Courtney appears to be wearing the same coat as he
is pictured wearing in three photos in Betty's First Book "Jesse James
Lived and Died in Texas." This proves he was none other than the
legendary Jesse James!
For those not familiar James Courtney is the large man on the left with
the dark open coat. Take note of how everyone is looking directly at him
as if they know they are in the presence of a so called "dead man"."

supposed to be killed? - Dallas Hunt
Here's one photo of the man known as James Courtney in
Texas to compare to. Notice that he's wearing the same coat as in the
newspaper. The collar has a long cut that reaches mid- torso level in
both photos. Also compare his nose, and other facial features to the man
in the newspaper. One in the same! - Dallas Hunt

Available! The TRUTH About Jesse James by Betty
Dorsett Duke
 Betty
Dorsett Duke’s provocative new book, The Truth About
Jesse James, makes a convincing case that Jesse James
pulled off one of the biggest
hoaxes in American history by getting away with his
own murder. Despite 1996 DNA results highly touted as
proving with a high degree of certainty that Jesse James
died and is buried in Kearney, Missouri just as history
reports, the author presents findings from her investigation
of the 1995 exhumation and subsequent DNA testing showing
why they are tainted and proved absolutely nothing.

What if the traditional history of Jesse James was not
all true, and there was a clever twist where he escaped and lived to a
peaceful and ripe old age? What if others close to him followed suit?
Some have considered such proposals as utterly preposterous, while
others have opened their minds to seriously consider the growing and
undeniable alternative evidences. After perusing this site each reader
will have to decide for his or her self if Jesse James was wise enough
to fake his death, or did he just wait for the inevitable? As you
consider the possibilities, ask yourself what you would have done given
his limited choices.
Jesse James’ legendary status began in his own time and still attracts
world-wide fascination – it will never die. He has been referred to as
America’s Robin Hood, a robbin’ hood, an outlaw, a patriot and a
terrorist. Perhaps he was all of these things, but the word terrorist is
often misused to abuse one’s enemies. The debate will never end because
one man’s Robin Hood or patriot is another man’s terrorist.
The traditional story of Jesse James’ death goes that he was living as
Thomas Howard with his wife and first cousin, Zee Mimms, along with
their two children, Jesse Edwards James and Mary James, at 1318
Lafayette Street in St. Joseph, Missouri. On April 3, 1882 he reportedly
removed his guns, stepped onto a chair to dust a picture with his back
to his house guests, Bob and Charley Ford, blissfully unaware that they
had conspired with Missouri Governor Thomas T. Crittenden to kill him
for reward money. Hearing the click of a pistol being cocked, Jesse
began turning his head towards the ominous sound just as Bob fired a
ball that tore through his brain. That very day a rumor began
circulating that this was just another one of Jesse's death hoaxes, and
it is still circulating to this very day.
Tabloid journalism was alive and well in Jesse James’ day and operating
in the same way, just sensationalizing a complete fabrication of
untruths. This certainly holds true with Professor James E. Starrs’ 1995
exhumation and subsequent DNA testing of Jesse James’ reported grave in
Kearney. Missouri's Mt. Olivet Cemetery. The DNA results are highly
touted as proving with a 99.7 degree of certainty that Jesse died and is
buried just as history reports, but the truth of the matter is that they
proved absolutely nothing.
No one alive today knows the complete true story of Jesse James. Much of
the historical version of his life and death is based on hearsay from
the very individuals who were trying to protect him. However, legitimate
DNA testing can determine if he is buried in that questioned grave in
Kearney, Missouri, but until this happens the traditional version of his
death is based on nothing but folk lore.
If Jesse did not die as history reports the domino effect begins -- Zee
Mimms was not his wife; Jesse Edwards James was not his son; Mary James
was not his daughter, and so on down the line. Most “experts” believe
Jesse James died just as history reports, but they cannot definitively
prove that he did without valid DNA results. There are enough dissenters
to make it an intriguing idea, and if anyone could have pulled it off it
would have been Jesse James.
Jesse James eluded capture for over twenty years, so he was certainly
capable of pulling off his biggest heist ever by getting away with his
own murder. The historical fact is that in 1879 he tried faking his
death at Short Creek, Joplin, Missouri, so why wouldn’t he try it again
in 1882 and succeed?
I’ve spent the last thirteen years trailing Jesse James searching for
evidences leading to his true burial place, because once it's found his
true descendants will be revealed. The search ended in Blevins, Texas.
From all indications Jesse James is buried in Blevins Cemetery under the
tombstone bearing the name of James L. Courtney.
For as long as I can remember I’ve heard family stories that claim Jesse
James was my great-grandfather. The story goes that he assumed the name
of James L. Courtney, hightailed it to Texas in 1871 and lived to tell
his great-grandchildren about his amazing exploits.
Does Jesse James’ blood really run through my veins? How many supposed
experts have ridden down the wrong trail? I want to know the truth and
have researched every known fact. I rode, hell-bent, into wild uncharted
territories, ambushed by hired guns at every turn. Some from the past,
and some aimed today -- truth is a tough journey.
So saddle up! Together we'll retrace Jesse's discovery trail as I have
replaced the fiction often told with the facts. You decide, perhaps you
will catch a glimpse of a great mystery solved as I have; and maybe
those rich insights will bring to you a new understanding of Jesse
James’ life in the old Wild West. Most of all, for Jesse's sake, the
real story of his life and death, never told before, unfolds. Ride with
me, to a time, a place, and find The TRUTH about JESSE JAMES.
A
Welcome from Betty
Dorsett Duke, great-granddaughter of the man known in Texas as James
Lafayette Courtney:
Thank
you for visiting.
I am a great-granddaughter of the man who lived over seventy (70) years of
his life using the name of James
Lafayette Courtney. I believe my great-grandfather's true identity
was
Jesse James--the most famous outlaw in American history.
My main objectives in
writing my book and in sponsoring this site are as follows:
1. To establish my
great-grandfather's true identity and tell his story.
2. To correct the historically accepted version of the life and death of
Jesse James.
After eight years of
intensive research, I have unearthed strong circumstantial evidence
indicating that Jesse James and James Courtney were one and the same.
However, some are understandably
skeptical of my claim because of the 1995 exhumation, and subsequent DNA
testing of the purported grave of Jesse James in Kearney, Missouri.
Exhumation project leader, Professor James E. Starrs, touts that those DNA
results proved with a 99.7 degree of certainty that Jesse James lies at
rest in that questioned grave. But my investigation of Starrs' findings
has yielded a much different conclusion---the 1995 exhumation and
subsequent DNA testing proved absolutely nothing because of the following
reasons:
1. The questionable origin of the teeth and hair used for
DNA testing, and
2. The questionable genealogy of the DNA reference source.
Join me to
see what I have discovered in my research and decide for yourself.
"When stemm and tryst James L. Courtney is
my heist."
-James L. Courtney/Jesse James
I believe this entry from his diary is just
one indication that Grandpa stole the name James L. Courtney. Stemm:
a line of descendants from a particular ancestor. Tryst: a
prearranged meeting place. Heist: a robbery.
