[SNIP]  On the stagecoah project, the library at Hobard in Geneva has all
the Geneva newspapers indexed to the earliest issues and it is full of
references to stagecoach travel and construction of the Genesee Road and
Seneca Turnpike. Also the Canandaigua newspapers go back to the 1790s and
are on microfilm at the library there. It just takes somebody to do the
research.  [SNIP]

     FOLLOW-UP QUESTION:

     Are there every-name indexes available for either newspaper?  Or, are
     there only general subject indexes?

     Thanks,
