Thank you very much. Everything helps when you are putting pieces into a puzzle. Dale Dale, I am of no relation to the Collins and have no information than what I found. They may or may not be your ancestors, though I hope so. You might also try the historical society in Vernon or Verona or look for church records in the area. Hope this helps you. utica herald, 10/28/1910 Alfred A. Collins and Ettie Collins to William Bemnan, property in Verona: $1,000. utica herald, 5/13/1918 Jonas B. Reeves Jonas B.
