I was browsing and found a website with a lot of snippets from Old Newspapers. Remove brackets. http://www(.)genuki(.)org(.)uk/big/eng/LIN/lfhs/NewspaperExtracts/ I think I've found the death of one of my ancestors there but I found all of it very interesting. Anyone with a Lincolnshire relation might find something here and even the more recent newspapers are perhaps useful as some reports are of Golden Weddings etc. Good luck Best wishes Sue
