Hi Eddie, Welcome to the list! I descend from one of John Archibald "Archy" Couch's brothers - Robert Waite Couch. I have a picture of John Archibald Couch and his family, which includes your ancestors George Rueben and Martha Permelia Cope Couch. I have quite a bit of information on the Bedford County, TN Couch lines, and will be happy to share - but you will have to be patient with me. My computer crashed and I should find out soon if I get my data back or not. Let me know how I can help. You may also want to poke around Bill Couch's website: http://www.couchgenweb.com/couch/josephc.htm Best Regards, Kathryn --- Eddie <eddie.cope@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > Hi List, > My name is John Edward Cope "Eddie". > My connection to the COUCH line is as follows: > My 2nd grt-grandfather was George Washington Cope.
