This special section of The Olden Times features old newspaper articles from or about Michigan history and Michigan families. 

You'll find old news articles, obituaries, birth & marriage announcements, ads and more, all scanned from original issues of historic newspapers. See the links at the top of this page to go to the Index of Names, to search this site or to take a look at the site map.

Note: The Index of Names is always your best bet for finding a specific name!

Each of these was scanned from an original issue of an old newspaper in my personal collection. They appear in the order in which they were added to this website. Be sure to check for archived stories, since I move them from this page to the Archives periodically.
