My ancestor, Simon Graham, drowned 30 July 1834 in the Saint John River at the Reversing Falls while taking produce by boat to market. I don't find him listed in Daniel Johnson's index to newspapers on the NB Provincial Archives website. Would like to know if Saint John newspapers for that time are indexed anywhere. Are microfilms available? Thank you. Shirley Smith Hi Patsy, If you are looking for an archived newspaper site and are prepared to pay a subscription you might want to look at: https://paperofrecord.hypernet.ca/papers.asp which is a page on the (new / returned) Paper of Record site which lists the papers they provide digital access to. This "collection" has a long history (for an electronic resource, which I won't go into here) but was - is (?) primarily a Canadian operation and so has quite a lot of Canadian papers. My (fairly superficial) impression of the Newspaper Archive Collection was that it was primarily a US collection which included other papers from the rest of the World (including Canada.) i would suggest you "compare & contrast" the two sites to see which one would fit your needs best. Incidentally, I have no interest (financial or otherwise) in either of these companies other than in trying to keep up to date with the other genealogy data supply companies.

I have found numerous obituaries, birth announcements, wedding announcements and interesting articles. Sandy Its not a scam but in 2 years of subscribing I found almost nothing of genealogical interest and as of today have let my subscription lapse. Check out the locations of their holdings before you decide; i think some areas are better served than the rest.
