    Notes:

    ***This information may be incorrect. There could have been to Joel Collins'. The census records throw doubt on my records***

    Mary Ann Collins Ferrell's death certificate (Euggie's grandmother) and it said her parents were Betsy and Joel Collins.
    the informant was I. E. Ferrell (her son Ira I assume). I have a marriage record of Elizabeth Susan Cole and Joel Collins. Samuel could possibly have been a middle name but I have found no evidence of it. (Information received from Virginia Hardy Frazier)
