This thread is excellent. I wonder is there anyway to sticky it to the top of my subscriptions list?

Also, for information on the Anglo Irish Treaty of 1921, Treaty | Treaty exhibition gives access to primary documents which were not available as recently as two months ago.

Didn't see this mentioned - the Library of Congress has a great newspaper archive: All Digitized Newspapers - Chronicling America (The Library of Congress) - it's indexed so you can use the search engine or you can browse by paper/date.

I'm currently reading papers from locations my ancestors lived in - not necessarily for mention of my ancestors (already did searches of their names) but to get an understanding of what was going on in their world at the time. It's incredibly fascinating.

Also useful for Pennsylvania research is the Pennsylvania Digital Repository: Access Pennsylvania Digital Repository : Advanced Search
