The Library holds Montrose newspapers
on microfilm. These films are NOT INDEXED. A
specific date is needed for research. Other resources that are
available are:
- Montrose County Marriages 1883-1900;
- 1910, 1912-1913 City Directories;
- High School yearbooks;
- 1870 Territorial,
- 1885 index;
- 1900, 1910 & 1920 Montrose County Census
- several books dealing with early Montrose.
3/2001- Note: I contacted the Montrose Daily Press about obtaining
past obituaries. This was the response:
... As a small newspaper, we don't have the
resources available to do research, copy stories, etc. for people.
We
do, however, have back issues of the newspaper well over 20 years
ago. If you know someone in the area who can come look that up for
you, that would be my first suggestion.
Barring that, I also suggest you contact the Montrose Historical
Society. This group may have volunteers available to do this
research.
Thanks again.
