Local Newspapers
« on: Saturday 03 March 07 07:47 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

Can anyone tell me which local newspaper(s) would cover the Steeple and Southminster area please?  Also, would they have existed in 1914?

Regards, Emma ;)

Emma,

Looks like it is the Maldon Express, Burnham, Southminster, and Dengie Hundred Reporter, and Halfpenny Newsman
You should get the details on this link.
