Collins was born in Bulloch County, Georgia on September 21, 1813. He later moved to Houston County and married a woman named Rebecca. They had a son, Jesse Thomas Collins, born in Houston County on January 8, 1837. Does anyone know the date when Enoch moved to Houston County and/or the date when he married Rebecca?
Enoch F. Collins bought land in Houston County 8/30/1835. He bought it from John Brown of Monroe County. It was in land lot #10 , 9th district 152 1/2 acres. Enoch is listed as living in Houston County at the time. Recorded Deed book G, , page 48 Houston Co., GA recorded 1/20/1837 I did not find anything prior to this in the CGGS publications of deeds. I did not find a marriage in Houston County for him.
