Hi,Paul!
Back again...
You asked also who were James Henry Collins' wife and children.
He was married two times that I can document.
1.Sarah L. McNeely- died Aug.28,1877
Children: a.Stella-born June 21,1870
b.Charles-born December 2,1871
c.Roy James- born June 22,1875 (my grandfather)
2.Elizabeth Watson-Married July 6,1879
Died- December 11,1897
Children: d.William R.- born July 9, 1881
e.Mary Annie (called Mamie) born May 22,1884
I am near certain that I have information that says he was married a third time.(I know his father,William W. was.)However, I do not remember his third wife's name. Also,by this time there would have been no children from this third union.
Let me know if you need any other information concerning James Henry.I also know that for a while he was a Justice of the Peace.
Thanks again, for all of your help with my family.
Sincerely,
Sadie
