    British Newspapers

    I'm doing a report on British and Irish immigration to South America (Specifically the Patagonia of Chile and Argentina) in the 19th century to early 20th century, and I'm looking for a database or a newspaper that would have been around in Britain to use as sources.

    Any information on where to look? I've used up my University library for anything on it, and I can only get so far with using South American papers.

    Firstly there is this:

    http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/

    All government output is here.

    Then there is:

    http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/

    Which links through to the National Archives of Ireland. Clicking on Genealogy, brings up a lot more information.

    I will keep looking.

    Regards

    There is: http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/

    I have access through my Library in England to search some newspapers online, if there is something you are looking for I can do a search.

    That link seems to be helpful so far.

    Scratch that. Seems I have to pay to view it.
