It appears that the earliest paper from Pulaski County that has been filmed is the Somerset Paragon. 2 Apr 1896 is the earliest date listed. The list of all papers that have been filmed is searchable by county, year, etc. at http://lib.uky.edu/repro/FMPro?-db=REELS&-lay=ReelsAll&-format=search.htm&-v iew (It's a long URL so make sure you've got the entire thing. You may have to copy and paste.) Hope this helps.

I was wondering if these old obituaries are retrievable and if they go back that far. Helen Templeton, Evansville, IN ==== KY-OLD-NEWS Mailing List ==== County and State Coordinators needed.
