Hello. Just wanted to let you know that this is my line. And I have quite a bit of information. Still gathering as I go along. How are you connected to this line. Would love to hear from another cousin.

My grandmother was Nancy Diadama Collier from Orton, Virginia;her father was William Collier from Virginia m. to Regina Wells--his father was Ori G Collier; Nancy married Spencer Goode from Hiltons, VA but they moved to Big Stone Gap, VA and that's where I grew up; I'm also still gathering.

I don't know of any of our Colliers living in KY My great grandfather William Collier was born April 13, 1845 in Lee County, VA and married August 17, 1868 to Regina Wells. He worked some as a blacksmith, besides my grandmother Nancy they had 5 other children; William, Amanda, John, Lavinia and Andrew Livingston who they called Lev. In old age Lavinia and Amanda lived together in Big Stone Gap, I remember them, we called them Aunt Viney & Aunt Mandy. I'd like to figure out where the Indian blood came in, my sisters and I really show the Indian and Nancy did, too.
