Looking for information on my family history of Collins.  I've been told that Edward Collins left ireland on a ship over 150 years ago.  That was Edward Collins.  I am Edward Collins 5th.

 

My ancester left Ireland and ended up in Chile, South America.  My grandfather was a General in the miltary in Chile and my father migrated to the USA in the 1950's.

 

I want to know more about the family that stayed in Ireland.

 

Thanks

 

Edward Collins
