Additional clippings can be found in the Birth, Marriage, and some other partitions.

Troy Gazette Register 1904 - Yesterday's News Typed by Pat MOTT Gobea These clippings from ancient and fragile newspapers stored above the Troy Gazette-Register office are being typed by Tri-County volunteers for presentation on site. Primarily we are preserving the neighborhood news columns and the obituary, marriage and birth information included in them. I intend also to include articles that show the influences on the lives and attitudes of our local populations at the time, and I will also illustrate the individual pages with ads from the era. Nothing is more revealing of lifestyle than the goods and services available. The TGR covers the area of all townships surrounding Troy.  Many neighborhoods have a local column submitted, but not necessarily every week or even every year.  Our thanks goes to the staff of the Troy Gazette-Register for giving us access to this valuable old news so that we can share it with you. There is no better way to understand the culture and customs of our old communities than by sifting through these clippings.  Even the names of some of these old communities have ceased to exist in today's world, but we have them captured and preserved here.   If you do not have the time to enjoy the luxury of sifting through clippings, these will be included in the Partitioned PICO Search Engine which you can reach from current What's New Page of the site. There is a partition just for the TGR Clippings. I am grouping these neighborhoods roughly by the township in which they were / are located     1904 Clippings General Births & Birthdays Marriages Obituaries 1 Local News Troy Guard Articles Reunions Obituaries 2 Schools Church Armenia Township Armenia Covert West Burlington Township Fairview Stanton Hollow West Burlington Burlington Township Burlington Bourne Mills Canton Township Alba Columbia Township Austinville Budd Corners Columbia Cross Roads Sylvania Virtus Franklin Township West Franklin Granville Township Granville Center Granville Summit Granville Windfall Sayles LeRoy Township Leroy Ridgebury Township Bentley Creek Ridgebury South Creek Township Gillett Fasset Thompson Hill Springfield Township Berrytown Checkerville Leona Springfield Mountain Lake Wetona Troy Township East Troy Long's Mills FallBrook Street Troy Wells Township Coryland Judson Hill Wells Edsallville Rutland Township (Tioga County) Roseville Not all Communities listed above had columns published in 1904- It no doubt depended on the correspondents available.
