What famous people could have been the Collin's friends. They had been rich for so long.

And, no doubt, quite a few of their portraits resided in Collins wallets at any given time.

I'd say Andrew Jackson visited Collinwood.  First of all, it was still probably a rather "frontier" type of territory, and he'd like that.  Second, nothing much "scandalous" was probably happening among the Collinses in the early 1830's, so they wouldn't have had to hide people in tower rooms and speak in whispered tones.

Perhaps FDR occasionally stopped off at Collinwood on his way to or from Campobello.
