Old Newspaper Headlines!

At work my current project is looking for death dates and death causes for grandchildren of Civil War veterans. Many times we find obituaries for the grandchildren and often the obituaries are on the same page with other news stories. And can I just say that sometimes there are some attention-getting headlines next to the obituaries?! ;)

I've taken pictures of a few of them that I've found.


This one just made me laugh... Cow not a car. :)

I don't think that Consummation meant quite the same thing as we think of it now... but still, kind of funny to put in the newspaper.

Look how cheap things used to be in 1969!

Both of these headlines caught my eye.

Bride-to-be disappears, so sad. Hopefully there was a follow up article a few days later that she was okay.

Read this article. It's actually kind of interesting.

Well I just wanted to remember these headlines so I thought I would put them here. :)
