Thsi is so weird. I was told not to long ago that my fathers side of the family ran with Jesse James for a while. The Copeland's have always been on the wrong side of the law up until my father and my Uncle claimed that it would stop. My grandfather ran with the mob. JB Copeland, he was killed in LA. when he and Johnny the fish, and a few others in John's mob threw him over for skimming off the top. I wish I could tell you more , and should be able in the future, but my family tree is in storage right now. When my father died in 1981 half the men there were mob the other half CIA/FBI ( My dad work in CID /CIA )Hope to hear from you soon.
