Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins looking for a link to my grandfather Harold B Collins 1915 . Mother Rubie Leonora Webb-Cole Dobbins. Married John W Dobbins. Harold was born in Boyd ,Kentucky. He was the 1st child of Rubie. Raised by Dobbins. Story goes Rubie left John just before or after marriage, and came back pregnant with Harold. Dobbins wouldn't give his Sur name to Harold immediately, but some census show Harold Dobbins. ( Could be typographical error or assumption) From what I was told and from photos, Harold has some Mullengeon or other DNA. The last names caused a family- military upset when Harold joined the military... Not sure how or what. There are no living relatives or connection to the Collins Name. My Grandmother, Harold's wife, very few that are alive, either do not know the family history or are past away. Including my father. I've done some research for Collins and I simple cannot get any where passed a few census reports that I've seen. I'm just trying to find a link, a distant family member, or someone that knows Harold and can sit and help me out with my genes.
Dwight Collins looks like Harold Berry Collins may have been officially adopted and changed his name, or had it changed for him as a minor.OR the whole dobbins thing is a typo and should read Collins wouldn't be the 1st time I'm checking .

Dwight Collins just by the geography and cultural hints Harold B may very well be from one of Valentine /collins descendents especially since they were at Cabin Creek..a lot of those collins went up there..I've sent out a cpl feelers let's wait and see that may be a transcription error too.
Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins yes, I think k her step father was a Cole! Who is Valentine Collins? And what area??
Dwight Collins you can copy and paste it into your own it's just various items I don't have them except for on here the thing is he was born in ashland there's one more set of collins I don't have files on so I have to look them up but other than my line it's likely onlt certain collins families would have been born there and not say paintsville or greenup
Dawne Collins Mezurek So could it be safe to say direct descendant to Valentine Collins?! And assuming Dobbins is typo for all these years... I so appreciate all this info you've sent and shared.. this is exciting. My husband and I plan to drive south this summer and meandor looking for some connections.. it would be nice to meet blood family that is Willi g to share family info and stories...
Dwight Collins not necessairly valentine there's at least 5 different collins families around there..lol
Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins, I also wonder if the Collins/Dobbins name is the cause of the argument involving the military? I do have ancestors.com. I know that's based in public input...there are a few in there that when I did the DNA test, say they are Dobbins and the Info matches...
Manage
Dwight Collins one more Collins to try are the scufflin' hillbillies a popular wrestling team back when another set of Collins Frank Collins but there's nothing I could find on his extended family he was partners with a Conley ..they were very popular
Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins thank you very much for all the info you've put forth... I appreciate it!
Dwight Collins Dawne Collins Mezurek I'm working on it don't give up and I can just copy the entire conversation to a doc so I'll wait until I give up lol..my Collins were in /Ashland for awhile but pretty sure I know them all not too many there now..the Berry Collins points to Griffin collins line ? but jst haven't stumbled on it yet.
Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins yes!! That's my Grandma!!! I found her in 2004. She was bed ridden. She remembered me as a baby!
Dwight Collins Stevie Conley..I have lousy word programs I don't have word I have something called Libre and I don't have a master file on Harold anyone can copy and paste it to a word doc..What I dug around and found I just straight posted here so I can maybe p…See More
Dawne Collins Mezurek Dwight Collins yes you did! Hopefully someone will come forward and own that they are direct descendant and have stories to share!
