Stephen COLLINS was co-executor of David HINES, dec'd estate
with his daughter Anna Collins Hines. The document was witnessed by Sally
Collins believed to be Anna's Mother. Anna's known brothers, Jeremiah and
William Collins, witnessed the sale of David Hines' slaves in 1825. Believe
another child of Stephen and Sally Collins to be Sarah C. Hamlett, wife of
William Hamlett also of Maury Co., TN. Wish proof. The Collins family had
originated in Cumberland Co., NC. Arlina < amoss@sunline.net >
