This message board seems to have largely passed me by. I don't use it much because it is not free.
I'm in the process of cleaning up the book on the COAD study which covers just about every West Country COAD or COODE who ever lived, up till 1911 anyway. The book is running over 600 pages
I keep people informed as to what is going on in the COAD blog, which is at coadcoode.blogspot.com. A number of articles from the book are there.
We mostly communicate on the COAD board at rootsweb, though things have been quiet there lately. See also
