Member Since: August 2006 Posts: 5 Send Message	Does anyone know if there are digitalised newspaper archives avaiable from Kwa Zulu Natal in the 1970's? I have a relative who was killed there in tragic circumstances about whom I know nothing and surely this would have made the newpapers so would like to unearth some more details. FAD

	Hi FAD, Try emailing the 'The Mercury' newspaper - this paper has been in business from way before the1970's and still publishing. GinaS
