I am trying to find the names of the parents of Jacob Couchman. He was born in
1841 in Ohio. and died in 1909 in e.Prairie, Mo. I think his parents were from Eng/Scotland.The family story is that he brought her to American in a carpenter's box and they were married once at sea.
My grandfather, Henry Blain(e)Couchman, was one of their children-there were supposedly 12.
He was born in 1848 in Ohio and died in 1961 in Arkansas. He married Addie May Allen. If you can know anything about them or more about Jacob and Miriam, please contact me at artsong@earthlink.net.Thanks. Karle Ann Goode

I have found on Rootsweb WorldConnect that
Jacob's parents were Michael Couchman and
Elizabeth. He had 9 brothers and sisters:
Mary E., Rachel, Amos, George, Amanda, Nancy,
James, Michael, Harriett. There is more info
on the web site, but the submitter has nothing
further than what is posted. I am interested
in Mary E. Couchman who was married to
William Leaf, but am not sure if this is
the same family or not. If you have
anything on Mary or her mother Elizabeth
please let me know.

Nancy -
Now I'm confused. Here is some of the data
I've found:
1. from IL marriage index - William Leaf md
Mary E. Riggs in Morgan Co., Ill 27-Aug 1846.
2. from Genealogy Library.com, Old Family
Records (appears to be Bible record) - Wm Leaf
was born 1 Sep 1823, Mary E. Leaf b 24 Sep 1824
and Wm Leaf md Mary E. Couchman 20 Aug 1846
3. from census records - family of Wm Leaf,
wife Elizabeth, son Lovett are in 1850 census
Mason Co., Ill.
Is it possible that Mary E. Couchman and Mary
E. Riggs are the same person? I believe that
Elizabeth in 1850 census is Mary E. Couchman
in the bible records as it also mentions their
children including Lovett.
Any further information is appreciated.

Nancy,

I have been working with a couple distant cousins on the Couchman Family Tree. Ours is traced back to Benedict and Catherine Couchman. Maybe we are distant cousins too! I would be interested in hearing from you.
