Hi All,
Just thought I would share a link I found very useful. It's a collection of scanned old newspapers from around the country, many dating back to the 1700's and 1800's. For example, I just found out about an area of the city popular in the early to mid 1800's for horse racing, traveling circuses, and even the first state fair in my area.
