Circa 1879 Tintype of James Gang Member Robert Woodson Hite!

Robert Woodson "Wood" Hite (1850-1881) was the first cousin of Frank and Jesse James. When he was very young he rode for "Bloody Bill" Anderson's raiders during the civil war. When the James-Younger Gang broke up after the disastrous Northfield Minnesota raid in 1876, Wood and his brother Clarence joined the newly established James Gang. It is believed that Wood participated in the Blue Cut, Missouri train robbery (October 8, 1879), the Riverton, Iowa bank hold-up (July 10, 1881), and the Glendale, Missouri train robbery (September 7, 1881). Hite was killed in a gang member dispute on December 4, 1881 in Ray County, Missouri.

The tintype is approximately 2½" x 3½". It is in very good condition. Please see the pictures for its overall quality in detail.
