Paris and Lamar County, Texas — News Articles
Because almost all copies of the local newspapers were lost in the 1916 fire,
tidbits of history have to be gleaned from other newspapers. This is a list
of articles from around the U.S. both before the fire and after. (Only PDF
files are indexed on this page as the others will be indexed through the
search engine.)
