Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GkB.2ACI/952 Message Board Post: I am looking for information concerning a Collins family which lived in Bowie County, Texas in 1880. The information I'm looking for is in addition to what I already know from the 1880 Census. I doubt that there is anything to be gained by any more Internet searches. What I really need is to find someone who probably does not have Internet access. At the moment I would like to know if there is a genealogical society in Texas that could advise me on how I could best obtain information that might not be available on the Internet. Any advice would be most appreciated.
