I had found one tree that said Hannah was a daughter of Job Collins and Elizabeth Ballenger, I looked into it, no, I don't think so...I have a very lovely pic of Henry Jr.Runyon and Hannah Collins that I posted in Pike county, My geneology group, well it was fantastic responses, met all kinds new cousins, but there it is again, no one knew anything about Hannah, except she was Henry's wife. Well then a Mary Collins, thank God, compared my Research number to those in her family that had done the dna Gedmatch, and they descend from Valentine Collins, in very pleased to see I share dna with a Nonnie (Collins) Henley and her nephew Jerry Collins.my Fed match number is A147080. I would love to collaborate more with you on all this.
