The following is a new and valuable link - http://www.plattsburgh.edu/polaris As described in an article which appeared in today's Press Republican, the Plattsburgh OnlLine Archival Retrieval Indexing Service (POLARIS) is a free web-based search engine contianing 20,000 references to magazine and newspaper articles, photographs and pamplhlets dealing with local issues. Staff at the Feinburg Library are still in the process of inputing information from index cards. Try searching for a topic such as Wadhams and you will see some references pop up for the 1800s.
