• Notes

  In 1718 he was living on a tract of land along the border of Essex, and King and Queen counties, Virginia. On 21 June 1722 a suit brought against him by Thomas Waring was dismissed. About this time one of his Negro boys ran away and was taken up by Thomas Barker. In 1724 he served on a jury and also gave evidence for Nicholas Davis in suit against John Pickett. On 21 August 1728 judgment was granted against him in favor of Thomas Waring, Sheriff of Essex County. NOTE - this story has also been linked to his son: Joseph Collins of Essex County, planter, on 16-17 May 1737 sold to Nicholas Pampline a tract of 200 acres in Essex and King and Queen counties. He was then preparing to move to Spotsylvania County, where he had settled by 17 January 1738/39 when the Essex County Court ordered that Philip Gatewood pay him 495 pounds of tobacco for twice coming and returning seven miles from Spotsylvania County and for attending three days as an evidence for him against Thomas Johnson in a suit for assault and battery.
