Subject: Albany Newspapers between 1800 - 1820


Good afternoon.

I have a couple of related questions for the list:

1. Were obituaries of "regular" people - ie, not public figures - routinely
published in Albany newspapers between the years of 1800 and 1820?
2. If so, what newspaper relating to Albany and/or the Town of Bethlehem
might have published such an obituary during that time period?
3. Where might that newspaper be archived?

Any help in answering the above questions would be greatly appreciated.
