I wasn't aware of that. I have ancestry.com, and I didn't know that I could
get all the newspaper articles there. I know there were obits, but didn't
know that I could get wedding articles, etc. Thanks for informing me on
this


Is that still available? I really disliked the data base because it was so
random. Ask for say George Moore and get 500 hits with George on one page,
Moore on another, etc. It was nearly impossible to zero in on the right
George Moore, even in the right town and newspaper. When they asked for my
opinion, each time I'd tell them the newspaper archive was worthless for this
reason.
But I wonder if I still have access to it? I'll have to check.
