Hi Janet, I hope there are some online but I have never found them. The Trinity Journal was a one day a week paper then. I have spent many hours looking through them.

Hi Janet, I don't know a whole lot about Weaverville/Trinity newspapers, but I did find that Shasta Public Library has a list of all the newspapers they have in their collection. You can find that list at this site: http://www.shastalibraries.org/spl/index.php?ref=Newspapers&num=All You can also go to the California Newspaper Project & search their catalog for Trinity - it will tell you what has survived, where it is located (Bancroft Library & California State Library have extensive California newspaper collections) & what dates are available. Just Google California Newspaper Project & keep clicking on Search the CNP until you get to the search form. Your local library may be able to get films on InterLIbrary Loan.
