... that hundreds of people lived in Jim Jordan's orbit in "Jordanville"? Source: The Fabled Doctor Jim Jordan, p. 68: "A colony developed at Jordanville ... The doctor built it over a long span of years. He exercised a firm hand utilizing the powers of fear and economic dependency. Several hundred people came under either his direct or indirect control. His subjects were his legal children; off children; grandchildren; waifs snuggling beneath his protective wings; men and women in his employ and their families; the multitudes bridled with economic obligations or professional services."
