R. M. COLLIER<\/strong>, County Sheriff, P. O. Cynthiana, is one of Harrison County’s self-made men. He is the grandson of William Collier, and son of Robert and Catharine (Moore) Collier, the latter daughter of William Moore, of Harrison County. The father of R. M. was raised in Nicholas County, Ky., and devoted his life to farming. He died in Springfield, Ohio, in 1849, leaving a family of five children, of whom our subject was the second eldest, and born Oct. 18, 1844. At the age of sixteen years Mr. Collier entered the Confederate army; was with Humphrey Marshall and Col. E. F. Clay’s regiment; and spent ten months of his services as a prisoner of war in Camp Morton, Indianapolis, Ind. Returning from the army, he engaged in farming. In 1870 he was elected assessor of Harrison County, which office he now holds. Mr. Collier was married in June of 1874, to Miss Eliza Ewalt, daughter of John H. Ewalt. Two children have been born to them: Thomas A. and William M. Mrs. Collier is a member of the Christian Church, and he is member of the order of A. F. and A.
