Massachusetts Newspapers, 1704-1974

6 072 758 stránok v 239 novinových tituloch

This collection is a compendium of newspapers published in various cities and towns in the state of Massachusetts from 1704 until 1974 with particular emphasis on papers from Boston and surrounding locales. Produced by MyHeritage in partnership with the Boston Public Library, this extensive collection includes papers from the colonial era through the late 20th century. Newspapers are an important resource for genealogy and family history research as they contain obituaries and other vital record substitutes such as birth, marriage, and death notices. Additionally, society pages and stories of local interest contain rich information on activities and events in the community and often provide details about the persons involved. Before vital records were recorded by city, county, or state governments, local newspapers often published articles listing or detailing these events. Obituaries contain vital and biographical information on the decedent but also on his or her family and relatives. Society pages began as a way to entice readers with gossip and news about the wealthy and famous but soon evolved to cover the goings-on of “average” citizens. An incredible array of information can be discovered in these society pages or sections from seemingly mundane notices and reports on events such as parties, job changes, hospital stays, and social visits by friends or relatives. These pages are a source of historical events that are unlikely to exist in any other record.

Red AuerbachThe Boston Globe, Boston, Massachusetts

Arnold Jacob "Red" Auerbach (1917-2006) was an NBA basketball coach, general manager, and team executive. Auerbach rose to fame during his tenure as head coach of the Boston Celtics from 1950-1966 where he coached nine world championship teams and was a pioneer in drafting and integrating African-American players into his team. He is considered the father of modern basketball for his innovations in the use of the fast break, team play, and defensive schemes.
