Hi Carlene, Adding to what Mike said: Social Security Death Index: Kenneth Couch Last residence: Arnold, Jefferson County, MO 63010 Born: 26 Aug 1904 Died: June 1970 State (Year) SSN Issued: Illinois (1956-1958) 1930, MO, Carter, Johnson Twp, Dist 6: Couch, Joseph P., 65, m 22, IL IL IL Couch, Margarett, 61, m 18, IL NY IL You can order death certificates for both of them at the Missouri Secretary of State's web site that Lanita found a few days ago. I couldn't find Kenneth and Mercedes in the census. There was a Kenneth Couch in Linn County, MO, 1910 and 1920, that was the same age, but his father's name was Ernest and mother was Mary J. so it probably was not him. I'll bet they had nicknames or the names are misspelled. Judy --------------- Hi List, I just stumbled across this couple and am hoping to find more info on them. I found them in the records of Smith Cemetery, Oregon Co., MO. The cemetery records show these 4 Couches: Joseph P. Couch, b. Feb. 01, 1865; d. Oct. 21, 1933 Margaret A. Couch, b. Oct. 17, 1868; d, Jan. 17, 1941 Kenneth E. Couch, b. Aug. 26, 1904; d. June 16, 1970 Mercedes D. Couch, b. Mar. 18, 1910; d. June 7, 1965 These Couches don't seem to fit with all the other Couches in Oregon Co., MO. I would appreciate any info on these people. Thanks, Carlene Missouri Ozarks
