Newspapers Reviewed in Detail

Reviewing every issue of a newspaper is exhausting and very time consuming. Reviewing every page of a single newspaper that published 4 pages each of six days a week for the entire war requires looking at over 5,000 microfilm pages. Each page must be reviewed in 4 views (1/4 of the page on the screen at one time), so almost 20,000 views must be made to cover the entire war in one newspaper.
Reviewing the newspapers is essential to understanding the railroads in the war because many schedule changes, accidents, company decisions, and local conditions are only found in the newspapers. Local editors were anxious to cover the area's great public work, of which they had frequently been a recent booster.
Below are the 146 newspapers I have reviewed to some considerable extent, along with the location of the microfilm or electronic copy I used. Since I am actively searching through newspapers, this table will change frequently.
For some reason, almost no Florida Confederate newspapers from the Civil War have been preserved. Visits to the Florida State University Library and the Florida State Library produced only some 26 issues from 14 newspapers. There were time tables in many of the papers, hitting most of the railroads in the state at least once, but almost no railroad-related articles.
When I began to collect, transcribe and post newspaper articles, in January of 2006, I had to visit libraries and view what newspapers they might have on microfilm readers. By 2014, there was a large number of newspapers available on the web. Thus, you will find transcriptions of articles from newspapers that are not listed below because I found only a few articles on line and have not been able to check each page of each issue. The Library of Congress newspaper archive, for example, has every Civil War issue of some newspapers, but only the Tuesday or Thursday issues of other papers. Some of the papers that I have found on line and are listed below have their link in the Microfilm Location column.
A warning about using the OCR search tool on most on line sites. OCR is far from perfect in reading old newspapers. I have frequently had a page return a number of hits, only to see other occurrences of the same word near the words that returned hits. Unfortunately, this means that we are going to miss data, since few of us have time to review a newspaper on microfilm when we have already done an OCR search on it on line.
About 2016, I ceased to update the below list. While all the below is accurate, the links are now often incorrect and many more papers are available at new web sites.
