Leonard, Thanks for your reply. We obviously belong to the same group of Couches and our DNA matches with other known relatives of Joseph Couch Jr of Bedford County, TN. I was not aware that some of these Couches went to Oregon. Tell me more. Also I am interested whether or not that my ancestors John Couch Sr. (son of Thomas Couch Jr.) and his sons John Jr and Thomas Couch ever lived in Bedford County particularly during the time between 1805-1808. WebMaster Bill Couch seems to think my folks were in Lincoln County, TN which is just above Huntsville and Madison County, AL. I have evidence of their being there as early as 1808 and all three were in MS Territory Census of 1809. Do you have any evidenc that they may have been in Bedford County prior to coming into what is now Alabama? Thanks, Robert H.
