Irish Newspapers prior to 1922.
As you probably know, the vast majority of the census returns, wills, parish records etc were destroyed in a fire in Dublin in 1922. This means that the only real source of finding information is through the newspapers. A searchable newspaper archive for the Irish newspapers prior to this date would be extremely useful

More WW1 Local Newspapers
They often carried obituaries, with photos, of local casualties. As many service records have been destroyed, these can be the only detailed record of a soldier.

Shields Daily News
Shields Daily News
The Shields Daily Gazette is included but that covers SOUTH Shields. You have nothing at all for NORTH Shields, a comparable town immediately across the River Tyne. What have you got against us North Shielders! We ask no more than to be treated equally!!230 votesClosed - Now live · AdminThe British Newspaper Archive (Head of Data Development, The British Newspaper Archive) respondedDear Readers

Birkenhead Advertiser
The Birkenhead Advertiser commenced in 1860 and contains a wealth of information about this town. John Laird began his shipbuilding here employing many thousands of men in his Shipyard.
Also Central Park in New York was built on the original design of Birkenhead Park which is still the same today.
The Birkenhead Advertiser commenced in 1860 and then later became known as the Birkenhead News I think in 1880.
Would be good to see this newspaper digitised if possible.

(Great) Yarmouth Independent 1857 to WW2
Great Yarmouth in Victorian times was a major seaside resort and herring fishery. This paper is full of interesting facts. We have a thriving local research group which uses the hard copies of the paper regularly. Unfortunately they are in a poor state
