Newspaper Abstracts and Articles

Clinton County has a long and rich heritage of newspaper reporting, beginning as early as 1855.  I hope that you will stay and visit.

There are also several newspaper articles in the History section covering topics such as the river, the bridges, early pioneers and some of the buildings around town. In this section we are listing more complete abstracts of entire newspapers.
