Anderson led a band that targeted Union loyalists and Federal soldiers in Missouri and Kansas.Raised by a family of Southerners in Kansas, Anderson began supporting himself by stealing and selling horses in 1862. After his father was killed by a Union-loyalist judge, Anderson fled Kansas for Missouri.
