Per phone conversations with Clara Kelly(daughter of Addison brother to James) on 8/5/2002

James went out west to Idaho to become a cowboy....met a lady Clara Larsen, he wanted to marry her but the war had started so he went back home and then went off to war and was killed.
He played the Violin very well, gave it to Betty (Clara's sister) when he went to war and was a camera buff and rode a Harley..a very nice man.
When his mother died in 1907 brothers James, Ray and William H lived in the home of Addison for a while, Clara remembers that James was the only one who would help her mother do the dishes...
