    • Notes for Sally Maria Couch provided by Chris Barry:
      Sally is listed as Sarah beginning with the 1855 NY State Census. Her will and that of her brother Silas Murwin
      Couch confirm Sally and Sarah are the same individual.
      In the 1865 NY State Census, under "Of how many children the parent," "2" is listed for Henry C. Koon.
      Sarah M. Koon is listed as a "Cripple" in the 1875 NY State Census.

      The will of Sarah M. Koon, dated 25 Sep. 1875, bequeaths all to "my beloved husband" Henry C. Koon, with
      any left in trust after his death to be divided among her heirs. Will presented 7 Dec. 1878, proved 23 Dec. 1878.
      In Probate box file, the Citation & Proof of Service, filed 23 Dec. 1878, lists Silas M. Couch, Hannah

      James D. Couch of Milan, Bradford County, Pennsylvania, and George W. Couch of Haverstraw, NY. In Decree
      box file, petition says will was annexed 24 Apr. 1882, husband "now deceased." A publication notice, dated 25
      Sep. 1888, says notice was posted in Republican & Standard newspaper (Montgomery, NY) each week for 38
