"My great great grandfather, David Rollins, was born in Tennessee about 1823. He married Rutha Carter, daughter of Levi Carter and Elizabeth Carter, about 1841. They came to Missouri in the early 1840's with the John Kelley and Levi Carter families. John Kelley was married to Sarah Carter, sister to Rutha and daughter of Lev. They went first to Franklin County, Pulaski County and then settled in Maries County in the 1860's.

David and Rutha had six children: Martha, George, Courtney, Joseph, Jerry and Susan. Martha married John Watson; George married Sarah Cunningham; Courtney married Robert Davidson; Joseph married Elmina Beaverett; Jerry married Mary Ann Susan Elizabeth Adkisson; Susan married Decater Kelley.

After Rutha died, David married her sister, Rachel Carter. David and Rachel had eight children: William T., Mary, Emiline, Sarah, Melvina, Morris, Daniel and Jacob. William T. married Cora Groves; Mary married Jesse Kuhns; Emiline, Sarah and Melvina died young; Morris married Sarah Matthews; Daniel married Della Rider and Jacob married 1. Lettie McKnolly and 2.
