Victorian Newspapers for Yorkshire
« on: Tuesday 03 November 09 11:40 UTC (UK) »
Hi Everyone,


Does anyone know how to find Newspaper Archives from the 'Thurlstone & Huddersfield' areas of West Yorkshire, for the 1880-1885 period.?

Be most grateful
Regards

Hi Foresthamlet

The Leeds Mercury has over 4,000 entries for Huddersfield over that period. It's available online from 48 British national newspapers available from gale Databases, but available online at Lancashire Library.

Yes easy-if in Uk, or abroad, go to

 http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/onrl/

You will see the database on the right of the screen.  You have to join the library first, yes join it as you would any other library. They send you a library ticket, with a serial number upon it and use that number to gain access. You do have to give you home address, so they can send you the library ticket. If abroad, then they send you the ticket number online. It's all explained on the website. It's very addictive.

You can also obtain same from Bradford Library, but you have to join as well-Lancashire has Times Digital as well, 1785 to 1985.
