    William Randolph Collier, Sr. was an Official Overseer of the Poor and as such took care of Shadrack Roberts from 1837-1838 and Eleanor Roberts from 1837-1846.  Shadrack and Eleanor were probably the parents of William Randolph’s wife, Catherine Roberts. The county paid for this support, so it cannot be said positively that these were Catherine`s parents.
