I grew up with the story that our family was connected to Admiral Cuthbert Collingwood, but it is all a bit vague. |

We have read with interest your information on Admiral Lord Collingwood, and we too from family custom and tradition have been led to believe that we are also descendents. |

My partner is a direct descendant of the admiral Collingwood, who I believe served under Lord Nelson. His great grandmother told him various things about him and his family still have his medals. There is also a HMS Collingwood, I believe and the family name has many nautical connections. There are also several Collingwood streets and roads across England, apparently in honour of the admiral himself. |
