Eva, Where did you find this information? I know there was also what looks like an Othaniel or Othnel Couch there and Mary Couch. I have been unable to find out who they are. That is the same county that my Sills, Jarrel, Mooney and Taylor families are from. I do know that a John Jarrel/ll married a Mary (Polly) Couch somewhere in Alabama but cannot connect them to my Jarrel family.
