The Virginia Gazette Index 1893-1925
The Virginia Gazette Index 1893-1925
This one-of-a-kind resource is the result of ten+ years
of dedication by Julia Oxrieder.
In a self-initiated effort, Julia retyped
more than one thousand pages of articles
from The Virginia Gazette newspaper
between the years 1893-1925.
Rebecca Suerdieck knew the value of this compilation,
and was gifted the entire set of records by Julia's family.
Little by little, Rebecca created a keyword searchable website
so that it could be shared online for free.
