Index to the Tuskaloosa Gazette 1875-1876
Genealogists and local historians will find a wealth of information in old newspapers.

The names can be compared with census records and can help family historians document the lives of their relatives.

The usefulness of a Gazette item to genealogists can vary from zero to
