James was from Rowan Co. and had two brothers who served with the 4th Ky.

He was wounded at the Battle of Resaca Ga. in 1864 James became a prominent judge in Rowan KY. after the war and was instrumental in the Cattle Wars of Rowan. Similar to a hatfield, Mccoy rivalry the states militia eventually had to come to Rowan to put down the Rebellion after alot of blood shed.
