The Waterford Citizen joins BritishNewspaperArchive

The BritishNewspaperArchive.co.uk (BNA) has added The Waterford Citizen to its online archive. So far, only editions published in 1871 are 1885 to search and view but the holding will grow to span 1859–1896. During this period, it was distributed under several different names, as follows:

1859–62 The Citizen & Waterford Commercial Record
1862–76 The Waterford Citizen & Commercial Record
1876–76 The Waterford Citizen & Bi-Weekly Advertiser
1876–96 The Waterford Citizen, County News & Bi-Weekly Advertiser

This paper, and the other 254 Irish titles already in the archive, can be searched and viewed by researchers with a BNA subscription or a FindMyPast subscription to one of its PRO/Premium/Ultimate packages. County Waterford is one of the best represented in the Irish collection with eight titles available to search.
