My Old Settler Bloodline

Our first bloodline land grand owner was Daniel Collier born  1775 in Sussex  Virginia  in my family tree
the next following heirs  had land by ;Benjamin Green berry collier, Hugh Collier  and William Coleman Collier  who were all from Tennessee. 
They were all my May Flower Generation  who lived in the good old days but were not tax free!
my grandpa William Coleman Collier  plowed with only horses until he died in 1974
my dad was William Coleman Collier jr, our  first military soldier maybe involved in  Vietnam to die poor.
I  Jennifer Collier was born in Florida in 1967. I lived all over the world to miss my American culture and heritage
My mother was German with military travels in her new marriage
I was wife and mother of three children born in Alaska in my 20 year military life time
when I became single i moved  to my roots 
where William Coleman  Collier  ring in my ears like an old settler chime
