Several years ago I ran across this outfit that I've used several times in the last 10-15 years. I recently contacted them to see if they were still in business and to get any updates of interest to previous information I'd gotten from them. I find they now have a WEB site and have also branched out to cover newspapers in portions of Ohio. Thought some of this group might find the site/service of value. http://members.aol.com/CGSystems/NXSearch.html List of newspapers covered: http://members.aol.com/CGSystems/NXTitles.html Happy hunting.

Roxanne ListHostess Newspaper Abstracts - where we are finding our ancestors in the news! Over the years many records regarding our ancestors were lost or destroyed in fires, floods and other natural disasters. Newspapers contain much information that may not be found elsewhere such as births, marriages, deaths, court notices, land sales, tax notices, businesses, etc. They hold many glimpses of information in their community news and provide us with many fascinating details about the lives of our ancestors from the businesses they frequented to the hardships and triumphs they endured while building a new life in a new land. Newspaper abstracts came online October 1999 and since that time has grown to over 2,800 pages of data all of which has been contributed by volunteers. This site contains abstracts, extracts and links to newspaper articles across the United States, Ireland and Canada published prior to 1923. More volunteers are also needed in all geographic areas - no submissions are too small or too large!
