. Civil War Battle & Massacre of Centralia, MO:
On the morning of September 27, 1864 some 50 Rebel bushwhackers, some dressed in captured Union uniforms, under Capt. "Bloody Bill" Anderson rode into the village of Centralia, whose population was less than 100 persons. Centralia in 864 had about a dozen homes, 2 small hotels & a couple of general stores. Most of the 60 or so citizens were Southern sympathizers. While waiting for the train, they terrorized local civilians, robbing & burning stores & killing a civilian who had attempted to defend a young woman. The stage from Columbia came in to the community & they robbed the passengers. During the Civil War was very divided & the state had the third most battles during the war. Jesse James & brothers were present at this battle. One can image the simmering atmosphere that prevailed in Centralia long after the Civil War was 'won'.
. The High Life in Missouri, Not Just For Samuel Clements.
The question of whether slavery would be expanded into Missouri lead to a bloody border war. Bands of Missouri bushwhacker & Kansas jayhawkers crossed the boarder to loot & lynch during & continued after the late Civil War. Missouri furnished volunteers for both the Union & Confederate armies.
. Outlaw, Jesse James born in Kearney, Clay Co., Missouri, during the Civil War, he joined the Confederate guerrilla band known as Quantrill's Raiders in 1863 or 1864. Returning to Missouri in 1865, Jesse & his brother Frank found that, although the Civil War was officially over, Missourians were still belligerent. In 1866 the James brothers joined forces with the Younger brothers to form an outlaw band. For 16 years Jesse James & his gang robbed trains & banks in Missouri, Kentucky & the midwestern states.
Jesse James died 1882. - PJA.
