Ancestry has added 13 Ontario newspapers to Newspapers.com. They were published in Bradford, Mississauga, Newmarket, and Stroud.
With the exception of the Bradford Witness that covers more then 100 years and the South Simcoe News that covers 37 years, the other newspapers cover only a few years.
Here are the new newspapers:
The Bradford Times, Bradford, Ontario – 1991-2017
The Witness, Bradford, Ontario – 1880-1985
Bradford West Gwilimbury Today, Bradford, Ontario – 1991-1992
The Bradford Gazette, Bradford, Ontario – 1988-1991
Bradford Weekly, Bradford, Ontario – 1986-1988
South Simcoe News, Bradford, Ontario – 1854-1891
The Herald, Bradford, Simcoe, Ontario – 1878-1879
The Times, Mississauga, Ontario – 1978
The Peel Consumer, Mississauga, Ontario – 1982
Mississauga Woman, Mississauga, Ontario – 1983-1984
Mississauga Business News, Mississauga, Ontario – 1983-1984
Bradford West Gwillimbury Topic, Newmarket, Ontario – 2007-2018
Innsfil Scope, Stroud, Ontario – 1972-1973
Some of the newspapers on Newspapers.com require a Publisher Extra subscription to access issues that are still under copyright. A less expensive Basic subscription allows you to read the older issues.
Meanwhile, people hope the Toronto Telegram, Peterborough (Ontario) Examiner, and more newspapers from Atlantic Canada will soon be added to the website. Me? I’m waiting for the Picton (Ontario) Gazette. I suspect a number of family historians are looking for more newspapers from western Canada.
There are now 405 newspapers in the Canada collection.
