Another Ontario Newspaper Online

Porcupine Advance, 20 Dec 1912

Thanks to my friend and fellow genealogist, Gail Dever of Genealogy a la Carte, I learned today that there is a newly digitized Ontario newspaper available on Our Ontario. Thanks to the Timmins Public Library, The Porcupine Advance is now searchable from 1912-1950.

According to the Press Release "Full-text search capabilities and digital imaging permits the user to browse, search and download this information, which opens up research possibilities to a completely new level.  In addition to full-text searching, both an Articles index and a Birth/Marriage/Death announcement index exist to facilitate browsing."

A few years are missing: 1913, 1914, and January to June 1915. You can start your search of this Northern Ontario newspaper on Our Ontario.
