Yes, Bruce, as you and others in this thread have rightly pointed out, Jim Rider (aka Ryder) was not a brother of Mart Rider as I originally said in my Other Noted Guerrillas book. (I've corrected the error in the Kindle edition.) Mart was son of John and Nancy Rider, and I think, as you suggested, he might have been a cousin to Jim, although I'm not even sure of that, since I haven't really gone back and tried to make the connection. I'm pretty sure Jim Rider, as you also suggested, was the son of the George Rider of Saline County. In fact, that's how I came to make the mistake in the first place. In one of the OR reports (Vol. 41, Part 4, p. 607), Capt. E.J. Crandall mentions that Rider was currently making his home across the river in Saline County "with his father and other rebels in that locality," and I took this to be a reference to Mart Rider, but it may have been a reference to Jim Rider. If so, then I wrongly attributed certain activities to Mart that should have been attributed to Jim. The other possibility is that Crandall confused the two men.
