I have heard the Clark Co. Courier
is not to interested and a friend forwarded this inf. which probably
would be the way to go.
Good Luck!
State Archives has the following
Clark Co. newspapers on microfilm:
Clark County Pilot, 1883-1925
Clark County Republic, 1893-1902
Clark County Courier, 1903-present
Bradley Globe, 1903-1926
Garden City Tribune, 1946-1957
Willow Lake News, 1903-1910, 1915-1940
There are a few gaps and missing issues, and some of the older
film is
poor quality.
We would be glad to have obituary
searches referred here. We charge
$5.30 to search one name and we need at least a month and year.
We can also loan the microfilm through
interlibrary loan for $5.30 per
roll for 30 days, up to 4 rolls at a time. For interlibrary loan
it's best
to call or e-mail here and get the correct title and roll numbers,
then
give that information to your local librarian. Of course you need
access to
a microfilm reader.
And, we sell copies of the film
for $25.00 per roll. Several libraries
in the state have received special appropriations or gifts so
that they
could obtain sets of film for their local newspapers.
Some additional information is located
at our website,

Let me know if you have any other questions.
