I am looking for information and former members and sysops of some BBS
in Tidewater Virginia.

The Tidewater area includes cities from Williamsburg southward through
Yorktown, Newport News, Hampton, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth,
Virginia Beach, Suffolk.

Some BBS I remember:

* Oxgate, CP/M system
* Peninsula CoCo
* Williamsburg or Newport News TBBS, ran on TRS-80 Model 4?
* The Enchanted Forest, 8-bit Atari BBS

There were quite a few others, I just happen to recall them at this
moment. I'm interested in gathering information about BBS, and their
users and operators in Tidewater Virginia from the late 70s onward.

Ask at the Oasis BBS - oasisbbs.hopto.org 6400

They are based in the area and may have a connection.

I used to be on Paradigm.  There was another popular WWIV board but I
forget the name.

I was there from 86 to 89 or so....the only board name I remember is
Guardians of the Flame....which was a RPG type setup....I recognized
some of the board names mentioned here..  I wish I still had my huge
list of BBS numbers.
