On the 1810 Census-Worchester Co. Maryland the following Collins are listed. They are all between the ages of 26-44. Any ideas how they might be related.? Charles ---Josiah---Belitha---Isaac----James A.----Thomas--James. I am looking for info about Charles Collins m. Elizabeth Chisley in Baltimore, Md. Feb. 12, 1806. He died at sea about 1817. They had 2 sons ---Stephen & ??? their mother place them in indenture because she was unable to care for them.

Jenelle, Try the WV rootsweb sites for following counties (lots of Collins families and most are related as the counties evolved overtime from parts of the others). Boone, Cabell, Lincoln, Logan, Wayne and Mason. Go to: _http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvgenweb_ (http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvgenweb) This will bring up a list of the WV Counties and you can see how they evolved and when. Good Luck Barb in OH

Does anyone have John Collins b 1782-1858, who married Elizabeth possibly MOORE, and had (4) sons:- 1. John b 1810, 2. Charles b 1812. 3. Henry b 1813 4. George b 1815. I cannot find anything on the LDS site, most of the baptisms were at St. John's Hampstead. How early are the census, (I've pretty much lost mine trying to find Collins). Thank you.

In the 1830 Census for Jackson Co, Alabama, page 85 of 146 there are several Collins: Martin, b. 1830, SC James, b ~1780 to 1790 (living with James is a 60+ year old woman) Ann ?, wife of ? Collins, b. ~ 1780 to 1790 William Collins, b. ~1790 to 1800 also, William Gentry and John Gentry. John is likely married to Margaret Collins, b. 1805, TN I believe all of these Collins are brothers and sister and the older woman is the mother. Is anyone researching this group and can share information??

Shabbat Shalom.. My instructions were to pick four people that I wanted God to bless, and I picked you. Please pass this to at least four people you want to be blessed and a copy back to me. This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let's continue to pray for one another. Here is the prayer : I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now. Where there is pain, give them peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. Amen.

My gg-grandfather was James Collins. He was born in 1832 in Galway, Ireland. His father was Peter Collins. James may have had siblings named Timothy, Catherine or Mary. In 1850 James and his family lived in either Jersey City, NJ or Brooklyn, NY. James married my gg-grandmother Ann Collins (her real maiden name) in 1852 at St. Peter's Church in Jersey City. Ann's parents were Michael and Mary Collins. Ann Collins was born on 3/1835 in Ireland. Ann's siblings may also have been Timothy, Catherine or Mary. You can see the difficulty in sorting out siblings. Ann Collin's family also probably lived in either Brooklyn or Jersey City in 1850. I would appreciate any help in researching the 1850 US Census for either of these two Collins familes. I am trying to get information that will lead me to their exact birthplaces in Ireland. Thank you.

The point no one is saying is "so what"? I have all the books and a database of 80,000 + names in chelsea revere and winthrop. I research denning dever cogan carroll mchugh malone. So you find a denning. lets say 12 nov 1853 In search of Patrick DENNING from Pullboy St.,Navan [Co.Meath] when last heard from [3 yrs ago] was in Plattsburg ,N.Y. Any information will be thankfully recieved by by his cousin Patrick DENNING ,Oswego,N.Y.- and you are looking for a patrick "WOW I FOUND MY HIT" even the new poster on George W. IN N.Y. today could get excited about this . but what does it say? that the patrick who was in meath is thought to have been in Plattsburg 3 yrs ago. Which patrick? I have 31 just in my database? The best story to get this point across is a women wrote the clerk of chelsea . asking for the birth certificate for James Denning born between 1878 and 1883.The clerk wrote back which one we have seven of them.I have 3000 mass dennings at least 2200 are from chelsea. And you find a Patrick or a James who is being looked for by his brother john and sisters margaret catherine and mary. Good luck every pat or james has a brother john and sisters margaret catherine and mary. just be careful before you jump on something that looks like your answer to a prayer Btw i searched denning and didnt get the hits i knew were there . the search engine missed them Jim Denning -Ygenealogist-MTgenealogist using Genetics to connect Chelsea,Ma.-Woburn,Ma.-denning-dennen-danin-dinan-dinihey-denningston-dinning- carlon-carroll-dever-cogan-malone-heslin-piscopo-mazzola-martini-farrell-mchug h-farley-grimes-lynch-doherty-SanDanto,Ita-Adargh,longford-Revere,Ma-Wintrop,M a.- and ever an growing list

Looking for family line of Raymond Joseph COLLINS 7 Oct 1927 - 15 Dec 2003 in Arizona. Married Pauline Elizabeth CAMPBELL 7 Sept 1929 - 1988 in Arizona. Raymonds fathers name Herbert COLLINS married Catherine ? Paulines fathers name Frank CAMPBELL married Gertrude?? RHODE ISLAND area. I'm lost, any info helpful.

It has been a while since I have posted my Collins family so thought I would give it another try. William Richison Collins was most likely born late 1700 as he is reported to have inlisted in the war of 1812. He is reported to have inlisted in Virginia/W.Va. I believe his parents were Horation Collins and Abigail Richison. after the war he went to Ohio. I believe it was there he married Margaret Hutichinson. No info on her. Their children, order unknown: Elizabeth Nancy (1822) Mary E. William A. Margaret L. Enoch A. Julia M. Sallie M. Abigail Julia married Robert Emmet Smithson and most of the above information came via a kind Smithson researcher. Julia was a teacher all of her life and at least some of the time in Aurelius Twp. Ohio. Enoch was murdered in Mexico City Mo. at the age of 55. Abigail married Albert Perkins 1847. Elizabeth Jane? married James Mace 1841 Sallie married ? Matthews Nancy married Robert P. Dilley, they lived in Washington co. Ohio. I has been a while since I have had any new bits of information or names to follow. I would like to find something on the Hutchinson line and on any of the children.
