Local Newspapers for the Shields Cemetery ...

Below are the newspapers that have been published in the vicinity of the Shields Cemetery.

Our newspaper information for the Shields Cemetery is based on data supplied by the Chronicling America website. For more information, please see our description of the Chronicling America website.

Hint: When we started searching newspapers, we only looked for obituaries. Eventually we realized that our search was too narrow and there was much that we were missing. Now we include things like around-the-town and gossip columns, birth and death announcements.

We have some family members who owned businesses and now we search for articles and advertistments for those businesses. Some family members could have been better behaved and a search of police blotters contained some surprises.

The following newspapers were published within 14 miles [22.5 km]<1> of the Shields Cemetery. These papers have been grouped by the community in which they were published, with the communities listed in the order of their distance from the Shields Cemetery.

A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- ) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point at the Shields Cemetery. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 39.6131, Longitude: -87.9648
