Seems a bit ominous to have a health book by a guy with a name like Coffin. :shock:

Coffin is not a made up surname I believe.Wikipedia shows other people with Coffin surnames.

I once found a good page on the Web that had minor information about Albert Isaiah Coffin but I seem to be unable to find it now.

I'm descended from a Coffin - and there is a house built by the Coffin family in Mass. I think. They came from Plymouth so I believe but I'm not sure of the origins of the name

I'm not saying I think it's made up. I just think it's funny! :D

Wiki says it is from the French for basket which seems likely - they appear to have been too well off to be coffin-makers
