I am interested in this family also. Like Jean, my father was a Collins on, Joseph Collins on from Penrith, of this family. For interest, at the time of my birth, 1944, he lived in Carlisle, and I know he died in Hull in, I think, 1964. He was not married to my mother. There, I've said it. I am almost 73 and it's taken me all this time! My maiden name was Dianne Hargreaves
