[56]US Census-1920

James Jesse was not living with the family by 1920. We are not sure where he was living, but he occasionally would show up-according to family lore.  He eventually lost contact with the family altogether, until he died.  They were sent a wire of his death and a couple of Grandpa's brothers went to pick up his body in St. Joseph.  According to June Allen, a wake and funeral was held in Grandma Mary Alice's home for him.  She remembers the funeral.
