March Addition: GenealogyBank Just Added New Content from 72 Titles!

Every day, GenealogyBank is working hard to digitize more newspapers and obituaries, expanding our collection to give you the largest newspaper archives for family history research available online. We just completed adding new content from 72 newspaper titles, increasing our content coverage from coast to coast.

Here are some of the details about our most recent U.S. newspaper additions:

  • A total of 67 titles from 22 states, plus 5 titles from the District of Columbia
  • 60 of the 72 titles added this month are newspapers added to GenealogyBank for the first time!
  • We’ve shown the newspaper issue date ranges in the lists below so that you can determine if the newly added content is relevant to your personal genealogy research
  • Note: every entry in the “Newspaper Archives” collection means it is the complete paper including all articles, with a number of very rare single-issue newspapers – many of them are the only known issues of the paper.
