The second version is correct, jesse's family's cow. Neither Jesse nor family are plural nor do they end in "s", so they take a "standard apostrophe s possessive". Jesse has a family who owns a cow - Jesse's family's cow.

Based on the way I was taught it would be familys' as the apostrophe after the S implies ownership whereas the apostrophe before the S is an abbreviation for 'family is'.

The second one. The second one implies that Jesse has more then one family.

"Family's". "Familie" is not a word in English.
