The Colliers of the Atlanta Area, Pierces and the Virginia Harrisons
The Colliers are one of the founding families of Atlanta, Georgia and heavily influenced politics in that area in the 19th century. The family shares striking resemblances to the highly romanticized and fictional O'Hara family in "Gone With the Wind." (Irish Catholic otherness, Mims family Peach Tree near Buckhead, sawmill owned by Andrew Jackson Collier, Butler family, appearance by actress Lillian Kemble-Cooper, relation to the family, in film adaptation). The Wilkes family, Scarlett's unattainable love interest, may be cousins to the Mitchells since her family line hails from Wilkes County, and they were an actual, prominent secessionist family. The author, Margaret Mitchell, is a relation to the Collier family and to the author of this article. I don't have a source, but I believe a Harris relative made a trip from Atlanta after it was burned in a wagon, as Scarlett does. The book is controversial in its treatment of race. Mitchell was herself a philanthropist in the African-American community and a member of a racially progressive family that would have personally faced significant ethnic discrimination and even violence from the second reincarnation of the Ku Klux Klan based out of her hometown of Atlanta at the time of her book's publication, making most modern interpretations, at best, muddled.
The Colliers were a specific target of General Sherman in the politically decisive Atlanta Campaign and the March to the Sea[376] since they owned much of downtown Atlanta, including the railroads and military industrial facilities supplying the Confederate Army. Sherman destroyed most of Atlanta after a nearly year-long campaign, securing Lincoln's re-election (instead of signing a peace treaty with the Confederacy). The city was defended by cousin, General William J. Hardee, and a Collier fought in the famous Atlanta Sharp Shooters. Sherman spared some of Atlanta, especially those churches and properties belonging to Irish Catholics, since many of his own troops were Irish Catholic themselves. The Colliers heavily intermarried with prominent Irish Catholic families before and after the war, including the Carroll family of Maryland, mentioned in the film. Although this would become a political liability along with likely their ownership of railroads (See: scalawag) following the rise of several powerful Conservative, Protestant Scots-Irish and populist political movements in the Deep South, the family has remained economically and socially powerful. Scalawag politicians who used the political vacuum of Reconstruction for personal graft and political expediency were a true problem. The railroads of Atlanta were rebuilt before the Georgia Constitutional Convention and before the implementation of martial law under Radial Reconstruction in 1867 from the Colliers' extended family finances, although it did not prevent political attacks. Today the family runs Collier International, a successful real estate brokerage.
The Colliers are partly descended from the Pierce (Peirce) and Harrison families with whom the family has intermarried dozens of times, as well as other very important political families. See also, note to African-American ancestry researchers at the bottom.

Lewis P. Peirce (1755–1833) moved to Oglethorpe County, Georgia with his wife Ann Wooten in the 1790s. He served in the Revolutionary War under guerrilla fighter Francis Marion, "the swamp fox", and commander Nathaniel Greene to whom the family is related. The Pierces married into the "Cotton–Taylor–Perry" family in and around Bertie, County and Halifax, North Carolina. Grace5 Harrell, (Ezekial4, John Harrell3 Jr*, John2 Harrell Sr, Thomas1) died before 1805 and married John Pearce. They had one child, Simon Pearce.

(The family is also related to famous and well documented Atkins, Calhoun and Clay families of the South).
Following the Civil War, his direct descendants, Andrew Jackson Weeks, son of Gasanawy Fleming and Martha Harrison, married Nancy Pierce, daughter of Frank Pierce and Nancy Mims (Fort Mims) about 1870 in Lowery, AL, named for the Lowerys, although branches of the family are known to have already been living in Alabama and Mississippi and fought in the War of 1812, such as General Nathaniel Taylor (1771–1816). Andrew Jackson Weeks is the descendant of Mary Pope and Joseph Weeks of Pope Creek, near the childhood home of President George Washington. A relation to the famous Texas politician Andrew Jackson Weeks whose family also migrated from Georgia around the same time is likely, but they are not the same person.

Vines Collier, Jr. named his 13th child Cuthbert S., suggesting the connection is by marriage via his wife Sarah Elizabeth, daughter of Benjamin Williamson and the unknown mother. A name change by Cuthbert Collier's descendents is a popular speculation, although it seems incorrect. Benjamin Williamson's brother is Cuthbert Williamson. The Harrison family is documented to frequently have used the name Cuthbert since the 17th century, as well, therefore Cuthbert in this case likely signifies a given name. The families are connected through the marriages of William Adams and Elizabeth Fendin, who later married Daniel John Greene and more closely, his son, Nathaniel Adams who married Margaret Ellis in 1744. The Adams originated in Massachusetts and are related to ***Presidents John Adams and ***John Quincy Adams.

- ↑ Note to African American Ancestry Researchers: Founding Father Pierce Butler fired his over-seer Roswell King of the Sea Island Plantations in Georgia due to his cruel treatment of the slaves. He also disinherited his only son for reasons unknown, but for this reason the plantation holdings transferred to Pierce (Mease) Butler from New York, who had little to no practical experience in running a plantation and was a very poor businessman. The son of Roswell King, Roswell King, Jr was hired as the over-seer in his place, but according to Fanny Kemble, wife of Pierce Mease Butler and Abolitionist, his treatment of the slaves was little better. Both Roswell King and his son sired man children with the slaves of the Sea Island Plantations. The Collier family and Kings are not related and did not intermarry, but the Kings also became wealthy and a prominent family in Georgia. Researchers may well find relations to leaders of Georgia through this ancestral line. Pierce (Mease) Butler was forced to sell around 450 slaves in the largest slave auction in US history to pay his debts. Valued at an inflation adjusted $25 billion, the slaves sold in this auction will be well documented.
