Coon was born in Marshall, the seat of Harrison County in east Texas, to Loyd Wesley Coon (1912–1998) and the former Ida Mae Sparks (1916–1994). The senior Coon was a native of Brookhaven, Mississippi, but had moved to Marshall with his family when he was a youngster. Loyd Coon was a farmer and dairyman. The family moved to Calhoun, an unincorporated community in western Ouachita Parish near Monroe in northeastern Louisiana. Coon was among the thirty-one 1954 graduates of West Ouachita High School (then Calhoun High School). After high school, he served for five years in the United States Air Force, with overseas duty on the Greek island of Crete.〔Ken Coon campaign card, 1972 race for lieutenant governor of Arkansas〕 In 1956, Coon married the former Sue Lynn Thompson (born 1938), also of Calhoun.
