Hi All I am trying to find out information and old photos of my family. My great great grandparents were John James and Minnie Collins both from Surrey. They had 23 children in total - not sure if all of them lived. In the turn of the Century they were living in Queens Road Mitcham this is were the family settled. The children were John junior died aged 1. Sam married Emily King. Joe married Daisy (not sure of surname), Bobby married Rose Hilden, Elizabeth married David Hilden, Louise married Abraham Deakins and then one of the Marneys. Unity married Frank Bird and then Ernie Smith, Minnie marred Henry Beaney, Rose married Benny Eastwood, Malinda married David Lee, Amy married William Shoebridge, Britty married Lenny Friend, Violet married Joe Carey, Ellen marred Jack Lee. There was also Ada, Verty and Oshey - don't know who they married or the names of the others. Any information would help but I am mostly looking for photos. Thanks for reading and if you can help please get in touch. Best wishes. Waynus James
