Newspaper Abstracts - where we are finding our ancestors in the news!

Over the years many records regarding our ancestors were lost or
destroyed in
fires, floods and other natural disasters. Newspapers contain much
information that may not be found elsewhere such as births, marriages,
deaths, court notices, land sales, tax notices, businesses, etc. They
hold
many glimpses of information in their community news and provide us with
many
fascinating details about the lives of our ancestors from the businesses
they
frequented to the hardships and triumphs they endured while building a
new
life in a new land.

Newspaper abstracts came online October 1999 and since that time has
grown to
over 2,100 pages and 100MB of data all of which has been contributed by
volunteers. This site contains abstracts, extracts and links to
newspaper
articles across the United States published prior to 1923. More
volunteers
are also needed in all geographic areas - no submissions are too small
or too
large!

Good luck in your search,
Barbara Freeman
