Last Farm Standing on Buttermilk Hill
Voelcker Roots Run Deep in Hardberger Park
Coker Cemetery has a rich history. You will find many familiar
family names on the cemetery headstones: Jones, Maltsberger, Isom, Sandau, Gordon and
Voelcker just to name a few. Max and Minnie Voelcker, the former owners of land where
Hardberger Park is located, are buried at Coker. Gayle Brennan Spencer was commissioned
by the Voelcker Trust to write the book, The Last Farm Standing on Buttermilk Hill
chronicling the lives of Max and Minnie. The book includes many stories
about the Coker Settlement.
