Frank Collins

In the 1860 census, Frank Collins was a year old, and he and his parents, Milo and Rebecca Collins, were living in Fulton, Rock County, Wisconsin ⁽¹⁾. By the next census in 1870, the family was living in Milton, Rock County, Wisconsin ⁽²⁾.

By the 1880 census, Frank had married Paulina Juhnke, and the two lived with her parents in Newton, Marquette County, Wisconsin ⁽³⁾. By the time they had their son, Robert Collins, on September 6, 1885, the couple had moved out of Paulina’s parents’ house to Milton, Wisconsin. Five years later, according to the 1900 census, the family had made a home at 8 Fulton Street, Edgerton, Rock County, Wisconsin. Frank worked as a day laborer during this time ⁽⁴⁾.

By the 1910 census, Frank’s family had moved to Rockford where they are recorded as living at North First Street, Rockford, Illinois, and Frank was working as a mason and chimney builder ⁽⁵⁾. In the 1920 census, Paulina and Frank are recorded as living at Pearl Avenue, Rockford, Illinois with their son George, and Frank had since become a proprietor of a restaurant ⁽⁶⁾.

According to the 1930 census, Paulina and Frank Collins lived alone at 88 Long Island, Rockford, Illinois, a house which they owned ⁽⁸⁾. Four years later, Frank died on the 15th of February, 1934. He was buried two days later at Willwood Cemetery, Winnebago County, Illinois ^{(10, 11)}. He is listed in the death index as a retired mason, with his last residence as Island #9, Rockford Township ⁽¹⁰⁾.
