I am the Nephew of Bob Collier. In 1957 I moved to England from Ballinkillen as a 18 year old boy where I lived with your Grandfather (my uncle Bob) for 2 years. My Father was Bob's Brother Thomas.
I have extensive knowledge of our mutual relatives still living in Ballinkillen and indeed the Collier family's ancestry reaching back before the Irish famine (courtesy of Jack Collier - another of your grandfather's Brothers)
These days we live in Birmingham Uk and our strain of the Collier family continues and thrives ( I'm a Father of 4 adult children and Grandfather of 4 now!)
We would enjoy hearing from a (not so) distant family member and telling you more about our shared ancestry.
Best Wishes
John Collier
