Here are bits and pieces of my Collins family history, gathered from many sources and researchers. If you have any information to add, clarify, or dispute, please email me and let me know. I will welcome all comments and new cousins ! This is a very sparse family tree, as I lost a lot of my information when I merged my file with another researchers. I welcome any documented additions.
