The www.AmericanAncestors.org website (the New England Historic Genealogical Society) has a number of periodicals available for members to search and read on the website.
You can see the list, and a short description of each periodical at http://www.americanancestors.org/Databaselist.aspx under "Journals and Periodicals."
Here is a list of the presently available periodicals:
* American Ancestors Magazine - Volumes 1 (2010) and 2 (2011)
* The American Genealogist - Volumes 9 (1932) to 73 (1998)
* Connecticut Nutmegger - Volumes 1 (1968) to 43 (2010)
* The Essex Antiquarian - Volumes 1 (1897) to 13 (1909)
* The Essex Genealogist - Volumes 1 (1981) to 25 (2005)
* The Mayflower Descendant - Volumes 1-40 (1899-1935, 1937, 1985-1990)
* New England Ancestors Magazine - Volumes 1-10 (2000-2009)
* New England Historical and Genealogical Register - Volumes 1 (1847) to 165 (2011)
* Vital Records from the New Hampshire Gazette, 1756-1800
* New Netherlands Connections - Volumes 1 (1995) to 15 (2010)
* New York Genealogical and Biographical Record - Volumes 1 (1870) to 25 (1894)
* Pennsylvania Genealogical Magazine - Volumes 1 (1895) to 30 (1950)
* Search for Missing Friends: Irish Immigrant Advertisements Placed in the Boston Pilot, 1831-1920
* The Virginia Genealogist - Volumes 1 (1957) to 49 (2005)
There are several other collections of newspaper extractions available.
This is an excellent collection of indexed and searchable periodicals concentrating on the northeastern part of the United States. I hope that they continue to add to these periodical digital collections, and that they add more periodicals from Vermont, Maine, Rhode Island and New Jersey.
Access to all of these searchable periodicals is one of the major reasons that I am a subscriber to the New England Historical and Genealogical Society.
