I could not find a FAG Memorial for him.


Or where his wife and son died at.



His siblings were:
Alex Coker Born 1883-
Robert Coker 1884-1941
Fairfield Coker 1886-


I made a family tree for him on Ancestry and posted the above documents and his mugshot.



If you are related and have more information I would be delighted to know.
