My g-grandfather was James Collins, b 1810 NC, d 1869 Bertie Co. NC. I have much more info on him, but do not know his parents. Possibility exists that the ones you are writing about could be his (and my) ancestors. I'm printing and keeping your info. If you think there is a connection and want more info, please let me know.
