Do you know of Coker ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Coker. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Coker.<1>

Our sources for Coker (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Coker other than they indicate that Coker would be found somewhere in Fulton County, Georgia.
