Help[Surname] Re: Coker
in reply to a message by debbie
English place name, apparently from a river originally, coker meaning "crooked". The place name is now represented by East Coker, North Coker, West Coker, all in the vicinity of Yeovil, Somerset. One of T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets is called "East Coker", if anyone's interested.
