Lonnie writes, "I've been keeping up to date on the town square/court house. I found a photo/page that was cut out of an Old Kentucky Magazine that was in my Collins's family photo album.

The earliest known Collins in Adair County was Zacharia Collins in the early 1800's and generations later lived in or around Glenville/Glens Fork/Adair County. Many are laid to rest in Grant Cemetery in Crocus, KY.

Even though my side of the family moved to Michigan in the 1940's, there was always a connection to Glens Fork. My Aunt lived in Glens Fork until her passing away 2011, my Grandfather retired and moved back to Glens Fork, lived across from what is Hard Scratch store/restaurant. Then moved to Columbia until his passing."
