Nathaniel COLLER, Mass 1700s

Dear Charlie,
Hope you've made some progress on this since your posting, but I happened upon it just now...
My research is on the COLLIERS of Mass., not COLLERS, but I have encountered the latter name in the course of research.You are probably way ahead of me in checking the typical Internet sources, using search engines, etc., but I might suggest looking as thoroughly as possible in Worcester County, Mass. and Windham County, Ct. records. Both counties had quite a few "Collers, Collars," and similar names in the 18th century, if not before. In Mass., the town of Oxford is well worth a look, as well as Leicester (I don't have the printed VRs in front of me as I write).You will note that Windham County is just south of Worcester County.
I'll send along just a couple of interesting possibilities that popped up on a "Google" search this morning:
From Oxford (apparently in 17ll still part of Middlesex County, now Worcester):
