A large related Collins family settled in early Nelson County. Several marriages occurred before 1800. In 1790 Zebulon Collins married Elizabeth Traux with bond by William Collins. (This Zebulon could be his second marriage.) In 1792, June 5 Isaac Mellon (Malin) married Sarah Collins, bond by William Collin. In 1796 Samuel Malin Jr married Anna Collins, father Zebulon Collins and bond Isaac Collins. It is very likely that Anna and Sarah were sisters, marrying brothers.
Reverand Isaac Malin and Sarah moved to Henry County, Kentucky about 1800. According to the History of Henry County, the first meeting of the Baptist Church of which he was a minister was held in John Baker's barn in 1801. John later gave the one acre of land on which the Church was located to the Baptist Church. Isaac Malin is recorded as posting bond for many marriages of neighbors besides officiating at their marriages in both Henry County and later in Owen County after it was formed in 1820.
Of interest is that in the early 1800s two Collins girls married neighbors of Isaac Malin: Phebe Collins married Andrew Baker and Caty Collins married Abraham Wainscott. It is likely that they were sisters and very likely sisters of Sarah, probably by Zebulon's first marriage. Thus I am including them as daughters of Zebulon Collins based on Circumstantial Evidence.
