Seeking info on Colllins ancestors from Nova Scotia, Canada, probably originally from UK or Ireland. They be George and Sarah Collins who lived in Liverpool, Nova Scotia, at least when theirson, John was born in 1824. Other chldren i know of were George Collins, born 1827 and Mary Ann Collins Brown, my great grandmother, born June 28, 1822 all in Nova Scotia. There may be other children. Mary Ann married my G'grandfather, Nathaniel Marchant Brown in Gloucester, MA, USA May 22, 1842, parents of Susan Edes Brown, Mary E. Brown, unnamed son of which I can find no further record, and Alphonso Brown, my grandfather. All of Mary Ann's children were born in Gloucester, MA. Got a clue?
