Schoolmaster at Ackworth, YKS.

Isaac Henry Wallis has this to say in his book "Frederick Andrews of Ackworth." 'The former (Collinson) has been associated with Ackworth all his life; he was a relative and intimate friend of F.A. and his family. An efficient teacher -- old bys will recall his classroom decorated with photographs to illustrate his lessons, pictures of cities far away and plans of battles long ago, and they will not have forgotten how he set them to disentangle the intricacies of Bradshaw in imaginary journeys from Hemsworth to Barnstaple or Featherstone to Saffron Walden.'
