We have recently moved but still within the Old Courthouse building. With this move, we lost our current phone service and phone number.

Where are the Eaton County Digitized Newspapers?

The Charlotte Public Library is now hosting the Eaton County Digitized newspapers on their website at charlottelibrary.org. Many digitized Eaton County newspapers have been uploaded to the Internet with more to come. On their site, go to Local History then scroll down to the widget's search box. You can search from here or click on the X in the upper right corner to close this window and look through the individual newspapers.

The Grand Ledge Independent newspapers after January 1924 can be searched on the Grand Ledge Library's website at gladl.org. Look for them under the Local History section.

The Eaton County newspapers are still available for searching at fultonhistory.com.

If you wish to donate to the effort to digitize more Eaton County newspapers, please send contributions to us at: ECGS, PO Box 337, Charlotte, MI 48813
