Can anyone help me with this name: Duncan Collins he was born in Tennessee I believe Grainger Tennessee. He had a son named Ceborn Collins. I am not sure of the dates because I lost all of the genealogy on my computer. Does anyone have any information on this Collins Line? I do know that my Collins line is Cherokee. My great grandmother Italy Lee Collins was born June 11, 1902 and she was Indian but she was also part something that I am not sure of. I think Duncan was born around 1807 or somewhere in there. Any help will be greatley appreicated!
