Hi, I don't think that you can compare the two who have these papers. For each person it is different. They can't have all the papers so it is a matter if the ones that they have are what you are looking for, They also don't cover several hundred years either so one has to look at the time period. I had wonderful luck with Newspaper Archives. I needed Marrieta or was it Massilon Ohio around the turn of the century. They had just the years that I needed. Some of the things that I got are as follows 1. Obituaries for a whole family 2. News about the business of this family. There were ads for the business they founded. There was history about the company. There was a piece on a fire which took place in the company. 3. Lots of social news about the family including Church and Social Clubs I can tell you that there was so much that I felt that I really knew the family. That is what I look for when I work on genealogy and not thousands of names. Velma
