 he was a Livery Man.

Hi Bill,
I believe this John MAY have gone West to mine for gold with my gr. grandfather.  John is listed twice--once Dec. 13 and once December 16 in the Beardstown, Cass Co., Illinois census of 1850--right along with my gr. grandfather (once listed as Lewis Baney--once listed as Lewis Barney). The original German spelling of our name was Böhne/Boehne.

It appears to be some kind of census error-they were repeated for some reason. I think they moved in between dates--maybe to get ready to go west.  It looks that way anyway--particularly when you look at their worth. Quite possible somebody else was giving information on one of the days.

John Couch is listed on December 13 as a livery man--age 25 from England--married within the year--but no wife is there.

John Couch is listed 3 days later as age 24--stable keeper--from Germany.  On this date he and my gr. grandfather are living with Johanna Couch, age 64--German--no occupation listed. John is not listed as married within the year.

I think the German place of origin is more likely correct--quite possibly the original spelling was Koch.  My gr. grandfather was German.

Other names close by Craig and Ross.

Does the Beard surname mean anything?

Look forward to hearing from you.
