The prequel is heating up as the land rivalry between the Duttons and other ranchers started getting out of hand. Viewers were surprised to see Jacob Dutton (played by Harrison Ford) fit and well in season two after he was caught up in a huge shootout in the first outing.
The season two premiere explored how Jacob and Cara (Helen Mirren) were facing their own separate challenges as while Jacob was busy running errands in town, Cara was protecting the ranch against the harsh elements.
They both still face the wrath of Donald Whitfield's (Timothy Dalton) plan as he vows to make the ranch more accessible to the elite.
Express.co.uk has all you need to know about how Jacob is related to 1883's James Dutton (Tim McGraw).
How is Jacob Dutton related to James Dutton?1923 follows the second generation of Duttons through the Great Depression and Prohibition in Montana.
The first episode explained how Jacob and his wife Cara (Helen Mirren) had taken over the ranch from their close family.
Jacob is the brother of James Dutton and he took over the ranch from his sibling after James died.
When he learned James' wife Margaret (Faith Hill) was also dead, he raised the couple's children as his own.
Jacob's nephews are Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) and John Dutton Sr (James Badge Dale).
Spencer was in Africa, working as a wild cat hunter, but is now on his way back to Montana.
Sadly John Dutton Senior was killed and Cara asked her nephew to return from Africa to help protect his family.
Jacob's great-nephew is Jack Dutton (Darren Mann), who is John Dutton Senior's only child.
He and his fiancée Liz Strafford (Michelle Randolph) were both shot.
With at least one major Dutton death, the family feels more vulnerable than ever before.
James Badge Dale revealed the cast has tried to determine all of the relations leading up to Yellowstone patriarch John Dutton (Kevin Costner).
He told The Hollywood Reporter: "This was the running joke. Harrison and I would be like, 'I think we're related, I don't know how.'
"We all need a flow chart. I don't know the tree. I've seen [flow charts] online, when people have tried to create them.
"I don't know if those are accurate or not. And here's the thing, this is Taylor [Sheridan's] universe.
"We could be saying one thing or thinking one thing, and Taylor can decide something else and we'll be watching and realize it's a little different and he'll change it up."
1923 airs on Sundays on Paramount Plus.
