How do I find an old newspaper article for free?

How would I find an old newspaper article online?

  • When my father was a little boy, he was in a picture with Dr Martin Luther King Jr. This picture was in the newspaper in Greenwood, Mississippi. I would really like to find this article online. I am trying to surprise him so I don't know the name of the paper. Is there a way for me to search for the event of MLK in Miss without having the name of the paper? I would really like to surprise my father....

  • Answer:

    Here's the link to the Web site of the Greenwood newspaper, the Commonwealth. http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?brd=1838&Nav_Sec=16949
