I have a question. The first time I remember seeing actor James Drury was on an old television program in which he portrayed Jesse James, Jr.; I am not certain, but I believe Frank may have been portrayed by Victor Jory. Frank and Jesse had an uncle who was named Drury Woodson James. The similarities of these names is quite noticeable. Do you know of any connection?
