Newspaper searches for U.S. relatives
It's worth underscoring the usefulness of the free Fulton History site, fultonhistory.com, for old newspaper searches. I've used it for years, with sometimes spectacular results.
Pivot to Digital: A visit with the man who has digitized more newspaper pages than the Library of Congress The article in the above link makes me aware once again of the enormous amount of material available there, and has opened my eyes to how much more is being constantly added. One hint I would pass on to anyone wanting to mine its database is that I don't find its own search engine particularly user-friendly. But there is an easy alternative. Use your regular Google search in any browser, and after your search terms add a word space followed by site:fultonhistory.com (with no word space after the colon). You can also use the built-in search engine on Fulton History as described here by Kiterunner: Quote:
