Thanks to GenealogyInTime online magazine: http://www.genealogyintime.com/ The Indiana State Library continues to add more digitized newspapers to their Hoosier State Chronicles website. The collection now contains over 100,000 issues and some 780,000 pages from many small-town newspapers across Indiana. The website has advanced search features, which allow users to perform full text search by publication name and date range. Access is free. https://newspapers.library.in.gov/ FamilySearch.org has created a new collection of Alaska vital records. These are birth, marriage, death and divorce records that span the years from 1816 to 1959. About 57,000 records have been indexed and put online, with more expected to become available. So far, most are marriage and death certificates from the 1900s. The records in this collection can be searched by first name and last name. This is the first time we have seen early Alaska vital records go online. Access is free. https://familysearch.org/search/collection/2216300 -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com nymets22@gmail.com
