Cocke change name to Coke
Posted by: Peter Coke (ID *****2589)	Date: August 31, 2011 at 13:22:23

I would like to hear from others who have seen the ancestral COCKE name changed to the COKE spelling. I am trying to learn from others why and when their family may have accepted the shorter COKE spelling for the family name. I have seen where one brother in a family appears to continue to use Cocke while others are recorded as Coke. I have heard several different explanations and find it very interesting. Please share your family’s story with us.
