My Grandpa Samuel Curtis Collins b.1906 in Claiborn co. TN. Often spoke about Mintie Collins. I believe she was a relative(?)
Mintie died young in childbirth with her fourth child in 1905. Do you know the names of your other Collins? [contact link]
Who thinks of "Sherlock Holmes" as a father? Actor Basil Rathbone, the authoritative Sherlock Holmes, was indeed the adoptive father of Barbara Cynthia Rathbone (1939 - 1969) and the proof is in this photo.

Cynthia, as she was known, died at age 30 of acute anemia. Her adoptive mother was also well known in her day - her obituary describes her as "one of the first women to attain prominence in the early days of film". While her family was "Hollywood Royalty", her Mom, her Dad, and she died in New York, New York.

New to genealogy. Learning my way around computers. Researching mostly in E. TN, VA, and KY so far. Searching for a Joseph Long born in KY in early to mid 1800s.
