There were missing issues as well as missing years on these newspapers.  Most of these are Sweetwater papers and they cover stories from surrounding counties.  These are on the first roll of microfilm of the Sweetwater Newspapers but included some of the 'Monroe Democrat'.  Sometimes Glenn just listed an obituary or biography in the paper but didn't abstract it. 

These are indexed by dates of the papers rather than page numbers.  The "Weekly News" overlapped other papers so that I put (Weekly News) then the date.  Once you find a date you want, click on the corresponding dates below.  You can do a 'searh or find' under edit in your browser and search by date or surname.  Once you find what you want, you can high-light and print the selected material you want.
