Glenda, If I am not mistaken Peter and Uriah Couch did descend from Jacob Couch of Greene County, TN. Jacob is believed to have descended from one Casper Kentz (AKA Couch) or Katz from Saxe Gotha, SC. Saxe Gotha (Now Lexington, SC) was one of the German Colonies establised in SC to help populate the place. Many of the descendents of Casper Kentz. Nicholas Couch, son of Jacob was in Madison County (MS TERR)and was counted in the territorial census of 1809. Peter, Uriah, and others lived in Morgan County. I think i told you of the Still Standing Peter Couch house in a Cove in Morgan County where Peter is burried. I hope I got this right. Boyce Morris of Tennessee is an authority on this family and Oregon Bob has a website set up for this Couch family related to Jacob Couch of Greene Co, TN. So, like I did with Boyce some years back we believe that the two Couch famlies lived in Madison and Morgan Counties together but were not really related since Jacob descended from Casper Kentz of Saxe Gotha, SC. Do you have anything on a Green Couch from this line?
