Diana, looks like perhaps newspapersarchive has opened to the public... that's good news! I had not checked it in a while. There may be a slight difference between the institutional version and the home version, I don't know. But if your library offers it free, then that's an extra bonus. I wouldn't think that your location would impact your ability to access it through your online connection to your library. I don't know how libraries operate in Australia. Here, when you have a library card, it allows you to log in to the library online databases. -----Original Message----- From: ROOTS [mailto:roots-bounces+erlybyrd99=yahoo.com@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Sharon L Crowley Sent: Monday, February 27, 2017 11:25 PM To: roots@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ROOTS-L] Dianna/Pittsburgh paper Search Newspapers 1607 - 2017 - Www.newspaperarchive.com‎ Adwww.newspaperarchive.com/7-Day-Trial‎ 325 Million Newspapers, Obits, Births & Photos From The US & 26 Other Countries! 30,000 Happy Subscribers · Start A 7 Day Free Trial · 50 States & 22 Countries · 200+ Million Pages Free Search Try our free advanced search tools and find hundreds of articles. 105+ Million Obituaries Search Newspaper Obituaries From 50 States & 7,620 Titles; 1607 - 2016!

Newspaperarchive.com is generally available through libraries or other institutions but not to individuals. When I lived in Colorado, the local library had it and I could access it online.

Ancestry.com also has some newspapers that used to be "theirs" but may now be part of Newspapers.com, since that was created by Ancestry.com. Additionally, many archives, particularly university and historical societies, have their own, and some of these are on the internet. I use the University of Oregon's Knight Library collection at: http://researchguides.uoregon.edu/newspapers/oregon My experience is that there is little cross-over, so it's important to look at each to determine if your target location is represented, and if so, what dates. I checked my Newspapers.com for the items mentioned by Lori, and didn't find those newspapers. One thing to remember is that newspapers changed names (Weekly and Daily...sometimes having both in the same time frame) over time, and I may have missed because I was looking in the wrong paper.

Hi Diana, I'm a different Lori, but I was wondering if you had checked Chronicling America through the Library of Congress website? There's a lot of newspapers there from Pennsylvania. Here's a link: http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/newspapers/?state=Pennsylvania&ethnicity=&language= That's just to the list of Pennsylvania papers. This is the main page: http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/ When I searched for Fullem in Pennsylvania, I got 4182 hits. Also, Elephind.com has 28 matches to Fullem. That site searches old newspapers that are digitized online. This link is the results list for Fullem in Pennsylvania: http://elephind.com/?a=q&r=1&results=1&lsq=Pennsylvania&e=-------en-10--1--txt-txINtxCO-Fullem------US--- Their homepage: http://www.elephind.com/ I've found somethings there that I didn't even know existed online. I hope these help. Good luck!!

HI Lori Thanks for your time, yes please if you could give me some dates and pages and I could try and navigate the https://news.google.com/newspapers. It would be a start anyway, there is one particular branch I am researching so that narrows it down a bit. Then I could determine if it is worth buying a subscription, just in case early newspapers are included. I have seen articles from 1814 in Washington County, that's not to say the Fullums are mentioned but you never know.

Unfortunately LOC does not have any newspapers after 1922. A listing of newspapers available can be found at: http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/newspapers/ I've found this site to be very useful.

The only city I could think of to check was Pittsburgh. I know it's not far from Washington Co., PA. In the years 1846 - 1945 there were 130 hits for Fullum. In the same years there were 104 hits for Fullom. Something interesting is that in 1871 a John Fullem (it brought up this spelling as well) committed a murder and there was a trial. This happened in Washington Co., PA but appeared in the Pittsburgh paper. Someone else clipped these articles. There were several of them. This is set up like Ancestry in that we can contact the person who clipped the articles. She clipped (saved) them about a week ago. Unfortunately it brings up words like full-time.

I addressed this to Curtis and now see that should have been Patricia. Gale On Feb 26, 2017, at 7:42 AM, GALE GORMAN <gale_gorman@me.com> wrote: Curtis, Has to be a different set of GORMANs. My immigrant was William GORMAN, 1803-1851, and he was from Clogheen, Tipperary. His parents are buried not far from there. There were quite a few brothers and at least one sister but not one named Phillip and the last of the family born in Ireland was in 1819. I have traced William in Ireland through the 1821 census and then he was in Alabama for the 1830 U.S. census. Hopefully I’ll fill in that 9 year gap some day. Two of the brothers, John and Patrick, I haven’t found beyond Ireland so there could be more of us out there or they could have died early.

The original records were handwritten and the “o” often looked like an “e”. In addition to that, a lot of people just did not read and/or write so they relayed their information orally and a clerk wrote down what they heard.

Just an additional note.  Many of my PA ancestors of the counties of Bedford, Huntingdon, Jefferson, Indiana and Armstrong. lived in Washington twps. whichkept pointing me to Washington county records. Finally, I began locating them inWashington townships of these various counties. I think the enumerators didn't realize what confusion it would lead to if they just put 'Washington' as the location. Also, Indiana county and Armstrong county had several newspapers being publishedduring the 1800s, and since much of these counties is either rural or farming areas; they are typical 'small town' format with the comings and goings of  whoever lived there or nearby. My 2nd great grandfather's obituary was found in one of the Pittsburgh newspapers, even though he lived about 80 miles east of Pittsburgh.This happened as he had done quite well financially and was known over much of western and central Pennsylvania. Hope this opens up some info for researches.  If you search by location, you oftenfind tidbits that don't turn up otherwise.

I don't remember how I started it, exactly.  I think I had a separate subscription in the beginning and then when I renewed to Ancestry it was offered.  I have Fold3 as well but I don't get much use out of that.  Yes, it costs extra, but it comes in a bundle.  Three, ancestry, newspapers and Fold3.  It's expensive.  But I check into it every evening (when I should be doing other things LOL) and per hour it's not so much. I'll look at Wash co., PA and see what's there.

Washington in Washington Co., PA is the only town I know about. I didn't recognize any papers from that area. I looked. But that doesn't mean anything. A Pittsburgh paper may have something. The database doesn't have all towns/all papers. What's the name? I'll see what comes up. What other towns are nearby?

It's Newspapers.com. It's the one which comes with the Ancestry subscription. I really like it and I spend a lot of time there. Library of Congress is free, but I think it's a bit harder to use. And there is Newspaperarchive which has different things but again, not as easy to use.

So far I haven't found the need to spend the extra money. Just so you know. You might try the local genealogical society. Even if they don't have it, someone might have a suggestion. Lori I hope that someone can assist me with an obituary search. When using this link for an obit for Patricia Roche born March 16, 1959 and died Feb. 1, 1986 in White Plains, NY, one result for her comes up. However, I am not a subscriber to this Newspaper Archive service and I am unable to extract the obit for her.
