      My Collins line goes like this:

      James Marion Collins, son of James S. Collins and Hariett Gunter, was b. 30

      There may be more,,I just havent gotten that far yet.

      Albemarle Co., VA. He d. 1806 Stokes Co., NC.

      Thomas C. Collins, son of Anthony Collins and Jane Lancelot, was b. abt 1724

      in VA and d. abt 1774. Anthony Collins and Jane had 6 children: Thomas, ***** last three??
      Winifred, Elizabeth, John, William, and Jeremiah.

      Possibly at this time, the name was spelled Collings. It is how it appears
      in information on them in England. I can go a little further back,,,if
      anyone needs it, let me know. Thanks,,,,,Brenda
