Are there any Grimsby newspapers who have articles relating to finding relatives of someone I have on my family tree.  Any help would be appreciated.

Local papers are usually happy to fill their pages at minimal cost, so I am sure they would print an article, especially if they can get a "human interest" angle.

You could try the Grimsby Telegraph http://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/ or the Cleethorpes Chronicle http://www.cleethorpeschronicle.co.uk/.

Hope this helps
Philip

They were searches I made for the Sutherland family and articles I found in the local papers
