Tristram Collins was the son of John Collins and Elizabeth (Barnard) Collins. His parentage is established by his being referenced in his father's will.[1] There is a birth record for a Trustram Collins, son of Trustram Collins, born in Hampton Falls, New Hampshire on 3 March 1710, which probably relates to this profile's Tristram Collins, although the father's name on the birth record would have to be a transcription error or a alternative name for his father and the birth date seems a bit on the late side. His estimated date of birth based on his 1730 date of marriage[2] and the fact his brother Ebineazer was born in 1704,[3] would be sometime in 1706-1709.
Tristram married Judith Fowler in Salisbury, Massachusetts on 7 January 1730.[2]
Tristram and Judith had the following children:[citation needed]
