Most issues from 1920-1950 are present. Little else is available online. The Chau Genealogical Society has indexed many of the local papers in book form. In particular, the Fredonia Censor prior to 1900. I think the dunkirk observer starts in 1895. The Mormons have microfilmed several volumes and can be ordered for viewing at any Family History Center. This board also had someone posting data from cororner's reports a year or so ago. A search of the archives might turn them up. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
