FREE online newspaper article

Over the past couple weeks I wrote about finding online newspaper articles about a great grand uncle named Matthew H. Greer. I found several articles about his death and his will. Several articles from paid sites. But the final word on his will (at least so far) came from a newspaper I found in a free online newspaper article.

The free online newspaper article was found on Fulton history, also called Old Fulton NY Postcards. This website is a great resource for genealogy but has a misleading name. You might mistakenly think it just deals with Fulton NY history or postcards or both but it actually has a large collection of historic newspapers. And it is free.

And although it seems many of its free online newspaper articles come from historic New York newspapers, I’ve also noticed newspapers from other states including Tennessee and Ohio.

So no matter where you are doing a genealogy search, this site seems worth a look since it may have a newspaper with something of interest.

You may notice that I’ve frequently used the word “free“. My thinking is that if it’s free, you have nothing to lose.
