Landon Collins ... He passed away in 1978. Were there two men of this name from Tennessee, one born in 1882 and one born in 1883? Further research should clarify. The man whose WWI draft registration is included here stated on the card that he did not know the month or day of his birth; the year was given as 1883.

On the WWI draft card, wife is named Rosa. This matches the woman linked as his wife on Find-a-Grave.
