How can I access or get copies of archived The Elba Clipper? Seven generations of my family have lived and died in Coffee County, AL. I'm hopeful I can find some record of their life events?in past publications. -----Original Message----- From: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> To: ALCOFFEE-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 5:28 am Subject: Re: [ALCOFFEE] Newspaper This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

None of them made a real go of it and none of them were archived. The current newspaper for Elba, The Elba Clipper, began in 1898 but none of the issues were archived until May 1901.
