It is wonderful that the house has been kept in such good condition, even if not by a family member. "Thunderbolt Plantation" is most likely the original gift even though Luke deeded them additional land. One of the Collin's sons deeded the property later and the deed contained provisions for the gravesite of his mother, Mary Collins.
