Hello all, I've noted that the below link no longer works to extract records from the Call-Chronicle-Examiner from San Francisco 1897-1910. Does anyone know what happened? I'm quite distressed by this finding as I had found many pertinent family records. http://www.loc.gov/chroniclingamerica/search_fulltext_advanced.html About the only thing I've been able to bring up is a newspaper article from April 19, 1906. Please advise if you know of an alternative site that may have taken over this priceless archive of old San Francisco records. Thank you!

I would suggest that we each send a comment to the contact on that site (the Library of Congress) asking when it will be back. If they get enough f a response, we might get this valuable tool returned to us. Meanwhile, access can be had via http://cbsr.tabbec.com/ (UC Cal @ Riverside). Use the SF Call only, not the Call-Chronicle-Examiner.

OK - I shoulda looked more closely. If you scroll down the available newspapers on the LOC site to SF Call, it's all still there. Go to advanced search, select the SF Call and then some common word like passengers. Jim James R.

Thank you for letting me know. I am glad it is still available. It is a "must have" tool IMO (very critical) for anyone researching this particular time frame as many of us on this list are. I found my great grand uncle and great grand aunt's obits. on this site. I never knew when they died; only a guess for the past 10 years. I strongly recommend this vital collection of newspaper records to everyone on this list. Thanks again.

I keyed in a name that I used before at this site. Everything in the same range of years came up. I don't see a problem.
