    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: GenealogistGirl Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kansas.counties.wyandotte/1551.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: There was a Kansas City, Kansas, major paper. I believe that it was the Kansas City Kansan even at that time. However, Kansas City, MO, (adjacent to Kansas City, KS) also had newspapers that often covered major news in Kansas City, KS. There was a morning paper called the Kansas City Times and an evening paper called the Kansas City Star. Additionally, the Bonner Springs Chieftain would cover news to the west of Kansas City, KS. And The Leavenworth Times would sometimes cover news to the north or northwest. I suggest that you contact the downtown Kansas City, KS, Public Library www.kckpl.lib.ks.us/ and the downtown Kansas City, MO, Public Library kclibrary.org/ before you give up. Addtionally, the Trowbridge Library in the Wyandotte County Museum may be helpful. info@wyckc.org My own grandfather was killed in 1934 by an automobile and it was covered by both KCK and KCMO papers.
