11.6 million Nordic Newspaper Pages Added To OldNews.com

 I received this information from Daniel Horiwitz, the genealogy expert at MyHeritage.

==========================================

We're excited to announce the addition of 11.6 million new Nordic newspaper pages to OldNews.com, the innovative website for historical newspapers, by MyHeritage. OldNews.com enables genealogists, researchers, and history enthusiasts to search, save, and share articles about people and events throughout history.

The new content includes historical local, regional and national newspapers, periodicals and gazettes from Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Greenland, and the Faroe Islands, with articles dating back to 1666, but mostly from the 19th century.

They are incredibly useful for anyone researching Nordic roots: we’ve gathered them from various sources into one place, making it easier than ever to search through them.

These newspapers have been indexed and are searchable on OldNews.com. You can also find them on MyHeritage here, with the full images for the newspaper pages available on OldNews.com via direct links from MyHeritage.

You can read more about the collections on our blog.

Disclosure: I receive a complimentary subscription to MyHeritage, and have received other material consideration in past years. I uploaded my autosomal DNA raw data to their DNA product. This does not affect my objective analysis of MyHeritage products.  I am a subscriber to Family Tree Webinars and love it.
