Using Bideford and District Archive to research your family or a specific name.

To add more interesting detail to family stories or local characters you can use our index system; 26,000 pages of the Bideford Gazette have been read and names annotated.

Index cards can be searched at the Archive or you might find a name on the website, more are being added every week.

Search for the name and follow the references at the Archive to find the relevant stories using microfilm copies of the paper.

All Birth, Marriage and Death announcements from the Bideford Gazette are also indexed separately on cards in the Archive and on the website.

To search you will need the date of the newspaper and the page number and column e.g. 25-07-1911 3F
