"Established as The Picayune in 1837, the paper’s initial price was one picayune—a Spanish coin equivalent to about six cents. During the 19th century, The Picayune became one of America’s most quoted newspapers, and its archives are a valuable source of information on the Mexican War, the impact of railroads, catastrophic floods, New Orleans’ growth as a commercial center, the Civil War and Reconstruction and much more. By the late 1800s, under the leadership of Eliza Jane Poitevent, the first female publisher of a major metropolitan daily, the paper had introduced a number of journalistic innovations such as society reporting, children’s pages and the first women’s advice column. The Picayune merged with the Times-Democrat, its fierce competitor, in 1914 to become The Times-Picayune. A rich resource for 20th-century culture and history, its archives chronicle issues and events of local and national importance. Topics covered include New Orleans’ lingering francophone influence, the Yellow Fever scare of 1905, destructive hurricanes, state governor Huey P. Long’s tumultuous career, the construction of levees to protect low-lying areas and the election of the city’s first African American mayor in 1978."

Historical Florida Newspapers
Note that the number of counties and the county boundaries were significantly different prior to 1925, so the geographic areas covered by these historical newspapers may not be limited to what is considered their local area today. For example, in 1830 Alachua County stretched from the Georgia border to Ft. Myers, and Mosquito (Orange) County stretched from Ocala to West Palm Beach. Also, coverage of Florida news prior to 1900 might appear in newspapers from other states which had major ports or railroad lines connecting to Florida (e.g., Atlanta, Charleston, New Orleans, and Savannah).
