Sharon,
I wonder if your Collins could have any connection to my Lydia Collins who married Elijah Uptegrove/Uptigrove?Their grandson was named George Washington Uptigrove.George's father was Nathaniel Frank who married Martha Faulden and was the mother to George W..I find them in Carroll, Bedford, and Henderson Co., TN.George Washington's daughter Cora Argusta married William James McKiever/McKeever and can be found in Ashley and Drew Counties in Arkansas.
I recently found some information on the Collins family that made me think there was about 10-12 generations that was on the web for Lydia Collins family.The family name was also listed as Collings?Does this sound familiar to you?I keep seeing the Brice/Bryce McKeiver family when I am researching my bunch of McKievers.I think there must be a connection but at the moment it is elusive.I am going to do some more digging and see what I can find.
I am willing to share what I have and I have recently been working on a document that would explain my line of McKiever/McKeever and Uptegrove/Uptigrove lines.
