Louisiana Online Historical Newspapers Summary

11/10/2020

1 Comment

 
Picture

Louisiana has a growing set of free statewide online collections for searching historical newspapers. Many states use the Library of Congress Chronicling America site as their main central online site for searching old newspapers and currently Louisiana has quite a few newspapers available on that site. There are free online newspapers available on other sites and there are collections available on subscription sites. Below is a list of where the titles are stored and the link so that you can access them. 

There are almost 2,000 newspapers that have been published in the Pelican State - certainly not all of them are searchable online. But there are several that are indeed available. So go for it - find your Louisiana ancestors and all the interesting articles that capture the stories of their lives. 

Please note that I have not always entered the dates that are included in the collections, as I suspect they will change as more items are digitized. Also I suspect that some of these links may change over time - so if there is a dead link - please use your favorite search engine to find their new location.

I found many of the Louisiana papers vital to telling the story of Ozeme Roy: "The Babble of A Drunken Man" - The Life and Duel Death of Ozeme Roy (1862-1909) and His Friend, Wade

Unexpectedly, it is still one of my most popular blog posts!

I refer to your site often! Thanks for the awesome collection of resources.
