If your Pennsylvania ancestors ever lived in New York State, you might be able to locate some information in this excellent free on-line newspaper database. Many of these early settlers migrated on to Pennsylvania. The free newspaper database website at www.fultonhistory.com is growing leaps and bounds! There are over six million scanned, digitized and searchable newspaper pages from all over New York State, ranging in years from about 1820 to modern times. This excellent free newspaper website recently received accolades in an article in the Syracuse Post-Standard newspaper. The link to the news story is on the Upstate New York Genealogy Blog at http://ny-genes.blogspot.com/ As a side note, the fultonhistory site is now extremely busy and please have patience, or try it at off hours for a while.

Thank you for the great site! - I found stories about my grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great grandparents and my 3x great grandparents.
