- I have started a indexing project of Kentucky small town newspapers.
- Currently being indexed (subject and personal name) are:
- CARROLLTON DEMOCRAT, Carroll County, Ky., indexed from 1868 up to 1889.
- BOONE COUNTY RECORDER, Boone County, Ky., indexed from 1875 up to 1891.
- HARLAN DAILY ENTERPRISE, Harlan County, Ky., indexed from 1922 up to 1925.
- NEWS HERALD, Owen County, Ky., indexed from 1905 up to 1913.

- All of these newspapers are ongoing projects with other dates to be added
- in the near future. Along with other counties to be added, starting in
- Eastern Kentucky. Anybody needing anything looked up in these
- particular counties, or information on these indexes please contact me.
- Anybody researching county history in any of these counties, there were
- lots of history buried away in these old newspapers. Thanks Allen.
