BROCKWAY RECORD NEWSPAPER ARCHIVE
|
The Brockway Area Historical Society has a database of notable events, such as weddings and deaths, that were published in the Brockway Record since its inception January 8, 1887 to its closure August 5, 1992.
When the papers were microfilmed, some issues were missing in whole or in part, and there were two periods when no papers were published. Several years after microfilming, a few papers were found which had not been microfilmed. Appropriate articles were extracted from these issues and placed in "Family Name Folders" at the Brockway Area Historical Society museum.
Although our microfilm archive is not totally complete, most editions printed prior to 10/5/1998 are available to obtain complete articles. Microfilm archives from 10/5/1988 to 8/5/1992 are available at the Mengle Memorial Library in Brockway. After searching this database, you may request a copy of the complete article referenced in the database by mail or visit the museum or library to access the Brockway Record microfilm on-site.
Acknowledgements go to Ronald Jones Stewart for his extensive efforts in compiling this index, and to Harry J. Charlesen, who provided computer assistance during the gathering of this data.
Copies of the full articles referenced in the "Results" are available by mail at $2.00 per article with self-addressed, stamped envelope.
This database is indexed by family last name. To search our database, enter the desired person's name in the boxes below and click on Search button. (Use upper or lower case letters- the text is not case-sensitive.)
