This site contains the texts from newspaper clippings from the Star-Herald and Bangor Daily News that were collected over the years by Phylis Allen (33kb photo). A few articles also contain photos. The clippings are arranged by topic. Please pick the type of information you are looking for, and then you will be presented with a list of time periods to look at. Choose the decade and the particular article you want to read. Use the "Back" button on your browser to return to look at another decade.

Special thanks go out to our sponsors. Please mention to them next time that you are in their business that you saw their name here. They appreciate the feedback.

Another file exist to tell you more about this site.

The clippings are found in the following categories, choose one to begin.


I hope you enjoy this archive and find some useful information. It is a work in progress. If you don't find the article you're looking for today, come back at another time. New articles are added as quickly as possible but this is a long process.
