Hi Everyone, Someone gave me a bunch of Civil War pension documents concerning John Couch (s/o Eli)on my recent trip to Leslie County. Maybe some of you have seen this one before, but I found this one interesting. It is a handwritten letter that basically supports John Couch's involvement in the Civil War. It is dated 22 Feb., 1908 and has a postmaster's seal from GAD, Ky. This is the interesting part, "...hereby certify that the family bible of Eli Couch shows that John Couch was borned January 6 - 1837, that the book is badly torn and worn..." Well, the good news is a bible existed. The bad news is that it was badly torn and worn in 1908, so probably isn't around anymore. I was going to ask around about it on the slim chance that it, or a portion of it, still exists. Maybe something to keep in the back of your minds(with all the other longshots)?
