Leitrim Observer
The Leitrim Observer has been running since 1904 and one of Ireland’s oldest newspapers. Its archives from the last 100 years offers readers a chance to get an insight into the country of Leitrim and its surrounding areas.
The Leitrim Observer archives are a wonderful resource for all those interested in family genealogical research with their detailed births, deaths (obituaries) and marriages. The provincial press was also far less censored by the British authorities than their national equivalent. As a result they give both the professional and amateur historian a unique perspective of Ireland’s turbulent past as well as the local impact of major national and international events.
The archives are now available online at www.irishnewsarchive.com. View every edition from the last 100 years exactly as it was published on that day. Fully word searchable and completely indexed Irish Newspaper Archives offers individual researchers and institutes / universities alike unprecedented access to a wealth of local history.
