Would someone be so kind to advise me if and where old issues of this newspaper might be available? Thanks so much for any information. Judie Mason
I haven't seen the actual newspapers, but the Immigration History Research Center in Minneapolis, MN has the actual records from some of the Jednota's. My notes show that they have items from the First Catholic Slovak Union, 1890-1958; and from the National Slovak Society 1895-1976. I also show that they have the Amerikansko Slovenske Noviny from 1893-1904; the Jednota Weekly from Middletown, PA from 1893-1940 and the Slovak V Amerike also a weekly out of Middletown from 1894-1938. You would have to check with them about their research policy. I also have a vague note that the University of Illinois has some of the Slovak newspapers. The Jednota also has a museum and archives in Middletown, PA which probably has copies of their publications. The last time I was there, in the 1990s, they were just getting organized. I wonder if others will offer you more information. These can be good sources for obituaries, I've heard. Renee ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judith A.
