I would be very grateful if anyone could tell me how I can access a Hartlepool newspaper from 1910. Isabella Young aged 6 was killed in a motor-car accident on 2.9.1910 near Cameron Hospital, West Hartlepool. One of her family, now very elderly, is anxious to know something more of the circumstances of the little girl's death, and a report of the accident or an obituary would really help. Many thanks.

They have a newspaper collection. Here are the contact details, and more information <http://www.publiclibrary.org.uk/hartlepool/> Alternatively, if you live near London, the British Library at Colindale houses newspapers. There is a catalogue of their holdings at <http://www.bl.uk/collections/newspapers.html> Regards, -- Helen Oram
