Clearly Rosanna COLLINS married to John RILEY PERKINS is not the same as
Rosanna COLE who married to Leander COLE. Both women are on the 1900 with their husbands and children.
The confusion surrounding these two couples stems from the fact that Leeander went by the name COLE and COLLINS
Both of these documents call LeeAnder a COLLINS and in 1915, 2 years after Leeander died Rosanna married to William RILEY Perkins the widow of Barbara Wadkins/Watkins. Rosanna, widow of Leeander used his name of COLLINS.
WILLIAM Riley Perkins married Barbara Watkins/Wadkins 26 Sep 1885 in
Magoffin County, Kentucky. In 1900 this
family was living in Abbot, Floyd County with the following children; Riley Perkins wife Barbery -Lindy Aug 1886, -Gracie Oct 1889, --- -Nellie Oct 1890, -Bertha Dec 1893, -Lola Oct 1895.
In the 1920 Census the children of Barbara Wadkins and the children of Leeander Cole are in the household of William RILEY Perkins and Rosanna Cole Collins. The two sons of Leeander are called 'step sons' to William Riley Perkins, widow of Barbara, and his children with Barbara are in the household called 'daughter.'
