Birmingham Archives have copies of all local newspapers. They will perform a search for you but you will have to pay. Any ideas which papers they have. Have been in the library a few times but when asked staff on the 6th floor I was told just B'ham papers. I have now found the info I was looking for concerning a 1939 inquest on a death in Oldbury. It was in the Smethwick weekly news. Do B'ham have that or local papers for Halesowen, Blackheath and Dudley? Gaye
