So I take it you have researched the Compton Daddy they are talking about already Kace? Is he a second cousin to the Bigalow from St. Joseph? I will never have that problem after I die Kace! It will be a long line of debtors coming to make sure that I'm dead! In Logan's case, his money wasn't even half of it! There was a lot of land in a lot of states that he owned as well. Which led me to look into the Jefferson Davis mapping and any possible heads up that he may have received from a friend. Like Morton and the Nebraska salt, he and a certain surveyor laid claim to for a while. I believed like several other large strikes in this country it could be linked to the K.G.C., AND it could if you wanted it to be, but of course, there is no hard evidence to prove anything for sure. There were, however, several pieces of Logan's land that contained wealth, but the oil property in Kansas and the stock holdings were the ones they were killing over In my opinion. I do not believe there was ever a full disclosure of what he owned after his brother killed the first blood sucking lawyer that came for that list. I read that he told his brother Ab "when I die I will make you the richest man in the world".Overall it was a very large amount of wealth when the assets were added together with the land which is much easier to see the value of now that it has been there for 150 years pumping oil! He told his brother Ab "don't stop cashing the checks the well is still pumping oil!" That money was the kind that litigation seems to follow for sure, and in their case, it was for many years and many generations as you pointed out in your post. That specific piece of property in Kansas changed hands under duress as what I believe was a "get out of jail free" card in the form of a quick claim deed that would be disputed upon that holder's death by Ab's widow in the early 1900s The litigation in most all of the cases was written about nationwide in the investment and gossip sections, but the stories seem to grace the oil monthlies and local rags more often in this area because of the location being so close to home. He was a large cattleman too with several out of state ranches. I have to wonder if any of those places Logan owned were frequented by Jesse and the boys or could have been used by them on occasion if they needed a place to stay. Maybe even a cache place?

I've heard this story my whole life.. I've told you who I'm kin to. I also gave you other names and places you could check.
I'm aware of what his assets were, others might not be if you feel like repeating truths,half-truths and untruths especially when it's garnered from sensationalistic articles.
The Compton guy was bought and brought in to bolster the Claims of ALLEGED PATERNITY by parts of the family that wanted ALL assets. I said assets in my previous post cause it wasn't just about cash. I don't know what happened when you quoted my post but I said on there 'Nothing To It'. Logan Was His Son.
When someone dies and there's substantial assets there's almost always Slander and Backstabbing and unless the estate is set up In Trusts and/or has the 'No Contest Clause'....Chances are great there's going to be a lawsuit. That's what happened. They questioned Heirship, Just For Money/Assets....It splits families to the point of FUBAR.
By what you said about yourself, you are lucky you don't have to think about it with your family. If there is a lot of debt in anyone's estate...very few will show up if any. Look what happened to JFD. I saw a family split over a signed Super Bowl Football once. That was 30+ years ago, And the parents had Everything in Trusts For The Children and Grandchildren To Prevent That Except That Flippin' Football!! That ended up in litigation...Sad.
JJ and FJ's Mother had family in Nebraska encompassing several counties. I believe that's the primary reason for the time they did go there to stay and get married in FJ's case. In my opinion I think they probably did see LE on occasion, especially for horse trading and racing.
All of the families I've mentioned to you were into that and most came from Kentucky. Most were English/Scots-Irish...LE's family were of French Descent. I gave you the name of who he descended from. The name spelling and pronunciation were changed, but at times some would use the original spelling of the name.
