I am related to the Bertie County Connors on my mother's side of the family. Clara White Connor lived in Windsor in the 1920/1950 years and perhaps earlier. Clara was my mothers cousin. She had some boys and at least one is still living. Carl Connor is living in Elizabeth City and would be about 77 years old at this time. He has parkinsons disease, but is till active and able to go to church. I suspect that he is a relative of the Abner Connor you are looking for. His phone # can be found on the internet or by information. Hope this helps. J Bryant Wisconsin

I really need help from you experienced Bertie County researchers. My primary interest in in finding more on George Collins and Edward Collins listed below. Here's EVERYTHING that I've been able to find on George Collins: 1. George Collins is listed in the May 1749 Bertie County Minutes. 2. George Collins is mentioned as an early Colonial Physician of Windsor in "The Windsor Story - 1768-1968" - published by Windsor Bicentennial Commission 3. George Collins is listed as a witness in Bertie Deed Book H, Page 50. JOSEPH WIMBERLY, merchant, to ARCHIBALD WHITE and JAMES SCOTT of Norfolk. June 21, 1753. 50 Pounds for Land now in their possession by above lease by a Bargain of Sale for one whole year. Land granted to EDWARD MOORE and conveyed to CHARLES HARDY and thence to JOSEPH WIMBERLY. Witnesses are GEORGE COLLINS, JOHN CHESHIRE, HEZEKIAH McCLOUD. If anyone can help me find additional records for George Collins, I would be extremely grateful. I'm trying to determine if he is the same George Collins who appears in the 1755 Beaufort County Tax List, North Carolina. Adding to my confusion is that there was an Edward Collins family who appears in 1750's Bertie County records, and another Edward Collins who appears in Beaufort County, NC records in the 1760's; the same holds true for Edward Moore. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Rose
