Does any one know how to find a particular article in a newspaper, I am wanting an article from a local paper dating back to 1971 I know i can get this info from the local library but was hoping to get it online. The local papers web site is totally naff and will only let me go back a year or two. any help appreciated

As far as I am aware there are not any newspapers online that date back further than a few years. I think we would all be interested in this!! So it would be the local library I'm afraid. Or if it's something that would have been in the national news and you know the date then perhaps you could order the paper.
