Are there some special tips on doing searches? I was looking for
William H. Thomas. I put it that way in the search field and then
"William H Thomas" in the search field and it brings up everything
with an H and also any Thomas as a first of last name and William as
a first and last name.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">This is a great site which allows full text
searches on the images. More images and titles will continue
to be added. Several other states have similar projects.
(Utah and Colorado are the ones I am most familiar with) Some
to the newspaper titles are hosted at the Library of Congress
so you should also check their site particularly for other
states you might be researching.<o:p></o:p></p>
