ENAbout
Welcome to the Papers of the Past Historical Indexing project. This project is for indexing historical newspapers from various locations, starting primarily with the state of North Carolina as of March 2025.
Our interest is in local news only—news specific to the state in which the newspaper is published (and communities in bordering states). Please do not index national news. For detailed instructions, visit the instructions document.
| Want to work on papers from a specific location? Newspapers from the following counties are currently available on the site; choose a county to jump to those papers: Chowan County, NC, Craven County, NC, Wake County, NC, Warren County, NC , Washington County, NC |
This is a sister project to one we have for the state of Tennessee and for that project, there is a set of video instructions; you can see the Tennessee instructions in a YouTube playlist: https://bit.ly/tnhistnews-training.
