I found you while researching for the COLLINS family. Of course I asked Johny about his family, In hope he may have info about our family. My Gt Gt Grandfather Patrick John Collins born 1820 his parents Micheal Collins and his wife Hannora (pos Obrien) yet to be proved. His documents all say he was from Kilcoudra, Clare Co. He joined the 75th Regiment at Clare Castle, in 1840. I am married with 2 adult Children 42yrs & 46. Love living in Napier NZ. Still working at 67yrs in a department store. I love listening to the talk.
