News from Another Century

The Olden Times is my labor of love (I sure don't get paid for this!),  and a way for me to share my personal collection of very old newspapers with other family historians. 

News items & ads from newspapers of the 18th, 19th & early 20th century U.S. From Portland, Maine to Sacramento, California! 

LOTS of great genealogy clues to be found here!

  Photos from a Victorian Scrapbook

I found a very old scrapbook in a flea market last weekend, and lo and behold, it held photos with NAMES on them!

My personal genealogy philosophy, summed up.

Many of the old news items, photographs, postcards and yearbook photos are treasures I've found on  eBay!
