Status: needs an API key AND written NLA permission — API terms are non-commercial. Until it is live, Provara tells you when this archive is where to look and you bring the record in yourself.
How to search it in Provara
- Historic newspapers: ask Provara for an obituary or a wedding notice by name, place and approximate year.
- Provara searches this archive alongside every other live one, ranks what comes back by how many of the person's recorded facts each hit contains, and shows you the record with a ready citation. Nothing is added to your tree until you confirm it.
Record types here
- Historic newspapers — Obituaries, marriage and birth notices, local news and legal notices. Often the only record of a death date or a maiden name before civil registration.
No card needed. Build and source your tree free; search these archives free; the assistant's research runs on tokens.
Every licence on these pages was read from the archive's own terms on the date shown. Provara proposes only what a record it has read supports, shows the record beside the claim, and marks anything unsourced as a hypothesis. Nothing on this page states a fact about any person.
