I am researching the Collins Family who came to Washtenaw Co. in the early 1830's I need to find Josiah and Mary (Brown) Collins children. The story I heard they befriended a stranger who had small pox and their family caught the disease and they lost most or all there children. The mother was marked by the disease but lived. I would like to find the childrens names and dates. I have several but need more. I would appreciate hearing from any one who is researching this family. Thank you in advance.
