I know that there are many templates that newspaper genealogy columns take, but one of the most popular are the columns that ask for queries from the readers.
And that is what Diana Lynn Tibet is doing with her newspaper column in several Atlantic newspapers.
But she would like you to send in more queries. She has a query published every week in the newspaper -- free of charge-- but she needs more to be published.
These are the newspapers that she published in -
Newfoundland - The Western Star, Corner Brook
Nova Scotia - Lunenburg Progress Enterprise & the Bridgewater Bulletin (includes South Shore counties such as Lunenburg, Queens, Shelburne)
Nova Scotia - The Bedford Magazine and the Halifax Southender (includes Halifax, Dartmouth, and Bedford)
Nova Scotia - The Amherst Citizen - Cumberland, Colchester, and Pictou Counties
Nova Scotia - The Guysborough Journal - Guysborough County
Queries can be about 35 words plus contact information, which includeS name, snail-mail address, and e-mail address.
