I was wondering if there is a run of newspapers for Louisville besides the Courier-Journal for the late 19th and early 20th centuries? I am especially interested in German families so perhaps there might even be a German paper. I have thoroughly checked the Courier-Journal for this time period and don't find much in the way of death notices. If there are some does anyhow have information that could help me locate these old newspapers? Thanks for any help. Richard Pope Torrington, CT
Richard: Yes, we did have a German newspaper but most of the deaths listed were death notices and not Obits. I will be back to the library over the weekend. Send me what you are looking for and I will see what I can find for you. Wayne Walker in Louisville -----Original Message----- From: "Richard M.
