Surnames and places are for local items of interest only, and include those items appearing in legal notices, local news items, correspondence, classified advertisements, obituaries, and the like. Names, places, and events given in national and international news items or in large block advertisements are not included.

The names and places are exactly as they appear in the newspaper. During the scanning and translation processes, the computer was trained to recognize the typography of the newspaper and many words were questioned and cross-checked for accuracy. A subsequent checking of spelling revealed a number of apparent errors, but, except for a few obvious and very minor typographical errors, no attempt was made to correct apparent misspellings of any word, or to change the editorial style of the paper, such as capitalization or punctuation. A few surnames have variations, such as an “ei - ie” transposition, or a missing “e” at the end of the name. Searches should take into account possible misspellings.

Indexes of surnames and places are provided at the end of the file for a quick reference.
