J. Frank Dalton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
J. Frank Dalton (died August 15, 1951, in Granbury, Texas) in his last years claimed to be the outlaw Jesse James. Dalton was allegedly 101 years old at the time of his first public appearance, in May 1948. He apparently had been a Missouri guerrilla during the American Civil War like James, but he did not have several distinguishing marks that Jesse James did. Dalton's story also did not hold up to questioning from James's surviving relatives.[1]
