Temporal Coverage | 1866-1866 |
Description | The Shreveport Weekly News, founded in 1861, chronicled the Civil War's impact on Shreveport, Louisiana. Editor John Dickinson covered battles, troop movements, and local cultural events, promoting southern industry and providing a platform for community engagement. Rev. A. L. Hay and his wife, M. B. Hay, continued the paper's legacy, contributing to its circulation growth across Louisiana, Arkansas, and Texas by 1869. However, publication ceased around 1870, coinciding with the Hays' relocation to Marshall, Texas, marking the end of the paper's influential reporting on the region's wartime and post-war experiences. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1866 of this newspaper. |
