The Advertiser Index of Pages Reported

 

The Alderson Advertiser was a early newspaper in Alderson from 1899 to 1939. A few years ago, several town organizations and donations secured the microfilm of the existing Advertiser and they are now stored in the Alderson Library for all to see if you are in Alderson. Tom Dameron, while pursuing the contents, got the idea of coping articles from the newspaper and sending them to the Aldersonian Website; a most aggressive project since it has to be done by mechanical means.  With years and years of material to chose from, this will be a never-ending and difficult task, but to have all readers to be able to view the gems that lie within, I think well worth it. I congratulate Tom for his willingness to do this and I'm sure you also will agree after reading these pages.  We will try to keep these articles in chronological and relative order.
