Prewitt) Other people suspect the parents of children below are possibly (VIII)1-1-6-3-1 James Collins m. Elizabeth Wylie or (VI)3-1-3 James Collins m. Elizabeth Gillentine. Of the three Elizabeth Gillentine and James Collins our the least likely, as I have had only to people say this over the last two years and they had no source information for saying this. I suspect they may have picked up on James Collins m. Elizabeth and got Wiley mixed up with Gillentine some how. There our two schools of thought the older one believing that James m. Elizabeth Wiley and a more recent view that Joseph m. Lucy Marchbanks. It is important to say that neither one has proof positive source information that shows which one is correct. I will add more on Elisha at a later date as I sort my mountain of information and why I feel Joseph and Lucy are a more likely prospect. Again there is no document that I have seen that positively Identifies the parents of Elisha and siblings with any parent. It is just by association with other records and how you add them up to what is after all our best guess. . (VIII)1-3-1-5-1 ROBERT COLLINS b. 1742 (VIII)1-3-1-5-2 STEPHEN COLLINS b. 1744 m.
