Message Board Post:

I am interested in finding information about the Frank Collins family, listed in the 1880 census in Enumeration District 1 in Bowie County, Texas. The family members are:
Frank Collins/Age 47/Laborer
Annie Collins/Age 39/Keeps House
Annie Collins/Age 12/At Home
All members of the Collins family are listed as being natives of Germany.

Also listed in the household are nine males; all but one of them is single. Six are listed as Black, and three are listed as Irishmen.

>From the makeup of this household, it would seem that the Collins family is operation a boarding house. I am particularly interested in the youngest Collins, daughter Annie.

Any information would be most appreciated.

Thanks!
