She married BURRELL MARION CAMP Abt. 1855 in Randolph County, Alabama, son of SEABORN CAMP and AGNES NOLAND. He was born Aug 9, 1834 in Jackson Co., GA, and died Dec 7, 1912 in Marshall Co, AL. Notes for BARZELLAI COLLIER: Birdzella (Bird or Barzellai) Collier was born in GA according to the 1850 census for Randolph Co, AL. Bird and Martha J. were born in Georgia. The family moved from NC about 1835 and on to AL about 1838. I can't find the family in 1840 - The closest is a family in Limestone Co, AL but I don't think it is right. Several researchers think that Barzellai is the daughter of Thomas B. Collier and Mary Dent of Madison Co, AL and the granddaughter of Col. James Collier. Census records do not show a Barzellai for this Thomas B. and records for Thomas and Sarah (Morris) Collier do show Barzellai. Bird married Burrell Marion Camp about 1855 in Randolph Co, AL and lived there in 1860 but had moved to Heard Co, GA by 1870. By 1880 they were in Marshall Co, AL. 1900 Marion Co. AL, Burrell M.

Notes for MARTHA JANE COLLIER: For awhile we thought that this Martha married William Richard Blackwell. The Martha who married Blackwell was the daughter of Col. James Collier of Madison Co, AL. Also we believed that Thomas B. Collier of Morgan County, AL and the son of Col. James Collier who married Mary Dent was the father of Barzellai Collier. We now know this is not true. Notes for GEORGE WASHINGTON CAMP: Some sources have his name as Wilton George Washington Christopher Camp. George W. Camp is the brother of Burrell M.
