You may currently be using newspapers mainly as a source for death and marriage notices, but newspapers can offer the genealogical researcher so much more than those types of family information only. Join us as Tom Pearson shows us how to extract every possible bit of genealogical information from newspapers. Find out what to look for in newspapers of different time periods and types, and how to discover newspapers of interest online and in libraries and archives.
