Descendants of Stockdale Coddington

Stockdale Coddington (1569-1650) was the earliest Coddington of this line to immigrate to America. His son John (1605-1655) may have arrived first, in May 1635 at Boston, Massachusetts with his wife Mary on the "Susan and Ellen;" Stockdale arrived about five years later. John's only known surviving child John (1653-aft. 1715) moved to Woodbridge, New Jersey around 1680; subsequent Coddington lines root in these New Jersey ancestors. A few other Coddingtons have immigrated to North America since then and left extant lines (see "Immigrants, Various Unrelated" in the surname index), but, in general, nearly all North American Coddingtons descend from Stockdale. Coddington is an uncommon surname. In the 1990 U.S. Census, 0.001% (=2,487) of the population were Coddingtons (surname rank 10,248 of 88,799). The everyname index to the 1920 census lists 3,692 Cod(d)ington, Cor(r)ington, Cud(d)ington, and Cot(t)ingtons out of the 106,021,537 persons enumerated. This database contains information on roughly 5,000 Coddingtons and variant surnames, 4,000 born before 1930, and ca. 5,400 matrilineal descendants of Stockdale. Pre-1900 Coddingtons are emphasized. This website is more an on-going database than a finished work; the notes are particularly rough. In general, non-Coddington surnames are followed for one or two generations only. JAMESON, CUSHMAN, DOUTHITT (DOUTHIT, DOUTHAT, DOUTHET) and AYRES also figure prominently.
