I was discussing with others how the word F.U.C.K. came about. So I went to Wikipedia to see if there was documentation there. The article I found left out what I was looking for, so I am adding what I know here: In the California State public school text books c. 1956 for Social Studies there was a section on how people were punished for crimes in early America. In this section there was a cartoon showing a man and woman in stocks with the acronym F.U.C.K. nailed on a board over them. Since I was in fourth grade I didn't think anything about it, but a couple of years later when the topic of the meaning of the word came up, I remembered the old cartoon. It was listed, and I would assume accuratly documented before being put in a California State Text book (?) as meaning: Found Using Carnal Knowledge. It is not as is mentioned in the article an English word, it is an old acronym used to publicaly address the crimes committed by the people who were placed in stocks in the public square. I would suppose the purpose of the acronym was so that children wouldn't be exposed to the crime, while adults would understand why the couple was on public display. This also make sence of the poems quoted in the article.
