Walker County Messenger, 26 June 1890
At Rest.
John Coker died in Morgan county, Ala., on the 7th day of June, 1890, in his
82nd year. He lived in Walton county, this State, several years away back in the
thirties, where I was born in 1836. He left Walton in the latter part of '45 and
lived in Upson county, Ga., two years and in the fall of '45 moved to Walker
county, stopping at Crawfish Spring a short time. (And just here I want to say
that according to my recollection the spring does not afford near the amount of
water now that it did in 1845. Of course I may be mistaken) For several years he
was helpless and was attended faithfully by his eldest daughter, Elizabeth, who
devoted her whole time to caring for him. Faithful daughter, you have done well.
