They have old newspapers on line as I have found some information on famiily including obits and other items. Not sure what dates they have on line but even if they don't have the years you're looking for I would suggest you contact them directly. Many libraries will do lookups at a very reasonable rate and send them to you as long as you have the dates. It's usually less than $5 and sometimes only the cost of the copy. If it's the latter I usually send more and tell them to put it in their "Coffee Fund" (grin.
