Trying to find Collins

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I am trying to find the marriage of Frank E. COLLINS b.about 1868 Yarlington/Charlton Horethorn, Somerset and Elizabeth Jane ASHFORD b. about 1869 Alford, Somerset. They raised my grandmother Edith ORAM known as COLLINS together with her 'cousins' known to me as Aunt Ev and Aunt Al both were COLLINS. However as far as I can find out Frank and Elizabeth had no children of their own. Family legend has it that Frank had a younger brother Joseph and another 12 brothers and sisters!I think I have found both Joseph and Frank with their respective households in the 1901 census but am having difficulty going beyond that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Jane.
