Message Board Post:
There are a few trees in Ancestry stating that Thomas COAD (died 1697 St Keverne) or his father was from Trabzon in Turkey. Can't see any sources mentioned for this though. Any info appreciated.

Message Board Post:
Trying to trace Coade family who lived in Killarney, Co Kerry. Charles Coade born c. 1832 married Mary Benner 27 Apr 1875. Father was Loftus Coade. Family also lived in Drogheda Co Louth. They were Methodists and I suspect they may have orginated in Cornwall. There is also a townland in Co. Kerry called Coad. Not sure what, if any connection.

Its a treasure trove but not easy to search. You need to use unusual words.
"Coad" is pretty good. For a particular name, such as William Coad, use
"exact phrase" search. You might also have to try Wm Coad and Will Coad
The very old references (pre 1600) to our mob are either Code or Coode. The
former is a common word and you need to put a christian name in front of it.
You need to remember also that the originals of these early documents may be
difficult to decipher and will use Elizabethan handwriting - so I never
believe what I see unless I see the same man mentioned twice.
Localities (such as "Luxulyan" or "Luxillion" ) make for quite interesting
searching, if you want to know the land history of a parish.

Joe or Ed:
I have been looking at the National Archive site and this is the first time
that I have seen it. Have you been successful in finding Coad information on
this site and what has been the most successful approach. The site doesn't
seem to have to much in the way of a tutorial.

Once again - sure I agree. As an academic I support proper verifiable
documentation. However - the advent of decent online reference sources has
greatly changed the way things need to be done - and their availability is
the only reason I was able to embark on this wide ranging study.
Its just a case of sitting down for about two months and putting in direct
references to four online databases, three of which are free. I chose from
the beginning to work almost entirely online and leave any paper
verification to family historians - its the only way to divide up the work
and make it feasible. I usually encourage family historians to do this -
though like me mostly they want someone else to do it!
A reason why I dont use microfiche/film (except in the CRO) is that in my
opinion they are an outdated technology and the facilities for viewing them
are so poor. Because I get motion sickness, trying to use them makes me very
ill. If anyone does a lookup for me, I usually give credit.
In a number of cases images of the original documents are online - Ancestry
census in particular where I have submitted hundreds of corrections. The BMD
indexes are also on Ancestry for anyone to view and I have submitted a few
corrections there too.
Familysearch/LDS has started putting up images of parish records at last, in
Cornwall anyway, though quite a few are unreadable. a2a is the hard one -
hunting out all those ancient land records would be a very big job.
