The Elgin County Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has put on it’s blog at http://elgincountyogs.blogspot.com/ , two excerpts from the Talbot Times, its society's newsletter.
The first article is "Scots coming to Canada", and it can be found at http://www.elginogs.ca/Home/talbot-times-newsletters/talbot-times-1987-september
The second one is also from the newsletter, the December 1987 Talbot Times, and it look like the society page of the local newspaper St Thomas Daily Time.
This is an excellent idea to get people interested in your society. Treat the blog articles as if it a “lost leader’, like milk in a grocery store. Think of your webpage as a store, and put these articles on your blog, so that people can see what you can offer them. And don’t leave the same articles there, change them around to make it interesting to people.
