Notes

The DAR lineages through William run to the Nicholas County, West Virginia, Collins family, Eula Collins Conley’s own. His daughter Nancy Jane (b. 4 Jul 1865, Pike County, Kentucky) married Thomas W. Blankenship in Logan County, West Virginia, in 1883. Not the William Collins who married Sytha Powell in Clay County in 1832.
