Hello fellow researchers, I am searching for information regarding a George COLLINS who resided in Anson>Richmond County, North Carolina between 1764 and 1799. He owned land in Georgetown, Prince George's Parish, South Carolina as of 1790...he sold some of his land to Duncan McInnes, yet he was one SC census as of 1800. I am trying to determine where George came from....his family naming pattern follows along the lines of the older Virginia family, however, I have been unable to find any matches among those lines so far. The first record I have of him is of a land purchase in Anson County, NC 1764, and the last I have is the 1800 Georgetown, SC census. As far as I have been able to determine from court records, census, tax lists, etc., George lived most of his life in Richmond County, NC. If anyone has any info that might help, please let me know.... Jamie Wood tennessee@dial.pipex.com
