Meredith Collins was placed into guardenship of Richard P. Robinson by the Pike Co. Court 1838, listed as a "Poor Man". He didn't died til 1841. Richard P married a Thornsbury in Pike Co. I always wondered if there was a relationship between the Thornsbury/Robinson/Collins. If you find anything let me know. Boy I wish I was going with ya. Brenda
