This is a mix of good news and bad news.

The people at MAHS are wonderful people but they have no access to copies of the Bellaire newspaper.

To do that, you have to go to the College library in Traverse city, fight the parking hassle, and review microfilms of the Bellaire Independent. No sane person would do that.

HOWEVER, I found time between sessions of the school to review films up to 1901.

If you're looking for a specific obit I might have it in my database and would be willing to look.

In depth search? NO. Tell me who you're looking for and I'll see what I have.

You're better off using the e-mail address below but that's up to you.
