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.
