    1. Area newspapers available as early as 1854?
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Slawson, Slauson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/4RB.2ACE/3183 Message Board Post: This may be a dumb question, but were there area newspapers as early as 1854? I'm hoping to find an obituary of Daniel SLAWSON who died Sept. 23, 1854. He is listed in a transcription of the Trumansburg (Grove) Cemetery(s), Town of Ulysses, Tompkins Co., NY under the spelling SLAUSON. If so, do you have any advice where to make a request for a copy? Thanks for your local expertise!
