How did the james younger gang start? and why?

I am wondering how the james younger gang started? and why? in the movie "american outlaws" they started because of the the government was going to take their land to put the railroad there... was that true... is that why they started? Im looking for websites that lead to this information of how they all started and why. and if you know any good sites about frank james, please let me know...

thanks
