Burke Collin's husband died of a gunshot wound in Ponchatoula Louisiana on February 11, 1872. Sometime later Mrs. Collins married Robert R. Sharkey (Planter) I do not know the date. I have not been able to find any information on Robert Sharkey other than Planter. Mrs. Robert R. Sharkey (aka Mrs. E. Burke Collins) was a published dime novel author. I have found information stating she lived in Tangipahoa in the summers and New Orleans in the winters. I cannot find her date of death or any other information on her. I contacted the Celebration of Women Writers site and had them list her name on their site on the internet. I contacted New York and they now have copies of her book covers on their New York Dime Novel Site. Any information you or anyone in your group could add would be greatly appreciated.
