Can anyone help me with this line of Collins?

1846/1847 Collins, Aquilla Inventory Book #N 498, O121, O 145

--January Court 1849 Mason Co KY

--Mentioned as to who bought what: Mason L Collins, Milton P Collins,

Thompson Collins, Mrs. Phoebe Collins, Henry C Collins, John T Collins,

Milton I Collins, Mason T Collins, Canill Collins, Henry Collins,

--March Court 1849 (estate settled) Milton P Collins- Administrator

--Listed: Mason L Collins

I am stuck on this man, Aquilla Collins. Thompson Collins (Erarasmus

Thompson Collins) is my line. I am assuming that Mrs. Phoebe Collins was

the widow, but I have no proof. Haven't found a marriage record.

Thompson Collins married twice. There were two children by the first

marriage (don't have the first wife's name or marriage) & he married in 1850

Mason Co KY, Susan Willoughby (daughter of Elijah).

Liza J 18 KY, James H 14 KY, Luther 10 KY, John 8 KY, Allice 5 KY, George 2 KY

George Thomas Collins is my ancestor. He married Lucy Ellen Glover from

Clark Co KY. Family story goes that they went across the Ohio River to get

married to avoid the marriage bond of KY (no $$). I have no marriage record

for them. I know that a Squire was doing marriage on the river - a term

Gretna Green that applies to these types of situations.

Is anyone researching any of the people listed in the inventory?
