Hi, I'm Chris Coey; this is the first message I've posted to this ng, and I'm basically just looking for some background info on my last name. I've received some conflicting information in the past--looking at my local library has told me that the name is a derivative of Cowie, which is the name of a town in both Scotland and Ireland, respectively. A couple of online sources have suggested this as well, but several other linked it to the Coe name, and that's why I'm on this mailing list. Anyone out there with more information??
