Hi Valerie,

North Collingham (note spelling) is just north of Newark, close to the Lincs
border, an area I have identified as MABB*TT territory. It might be worth
looking at the LDS catalogue on their website to see if they have filmed the
registers. Then, if you have an LDS near you, you can order the film to
study at one of their centres.
