To Meg Garner - I have copied your query here for my own perusal later as editing in my email is fouled up----------------- - You asked - Was wondering if you had a JOHN COLLINS who had his will probated in 1776 in Sussex Co, Delaware. His wife was "EDY" and children were JOHN, (may have been born in 1751), HANCOCK (no birthdate, but his will was probated 8-6-1782), ANDREW (may have died 1784), ELIZABETH Collins (no dates, but not married in 1776), EDY Collins Townsend (my relative) - born circa 1756 and died before 1821 in Sussex Co. Del. Married to Elias Townsend, and RACHEL Collins Watson - born 1747 and died 1833, wife of Jesse Watson, who was born 10 Jan 1744. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Meg --------------------------------------------- I wish I could help you. None of the names rings a bell, except John - so very many, but any John I have doesn't connect.
