Old Fulton History, I found a lot of old stuff (early 1900s and prior) from Oneida County, NY that newspapers.com didn't have

But I LOVE Newspapers, I've packed so many more people in my tree playing "obituary calculus."

As for your search, you have to see what range of issues of The Watchman (assuming they have that publication available) they have.

Also, I've found that you can find the same subject in different papers in the same city/county/even state.

I went for the standalone Publisher-Extra subscription to access everything vs the basic version in Ancestry.

Hey, if you'd like, you can inbox me what you're looking for and I'll be glad to take a stab.
