I am researching the family of William G. Collins and Anna Kirby Collins that resided in Charlton/Ballston, Saratoga County, NY. William was born in Ireland Oct. 29 1839 and died Nov 4 1898 (buried in St. Mary's Cemetery in Ballston Spa, NY). Anna was born in Dec. 1840 in Ireland. Her parents were Mary Leahy and James Kirby. The Kirby's immigrated to the US in 1850. William and Anna had 7 children: 1)Catherine Collins, b. 26 June 1870, d. 3 Nov 1950, m. Alfred Van Epps. 2) James R. Collins, b. March 20 1874, d. Dec 20 1879. 3) John Collins 4) Mary Collins 5) Sarah Collins, m. Walter Van Epps. 6) Timothy Collins 7) William G. Collins, Jr. Any connections to these folks?
