Wellsburgh Gazette

• id: 445
• end_date: November 30, 1822
• frequency: Weekly
• lineage_id: 105
• proprietors: John Berry
• start_date: ca. January 23, 1818
• variant_number: Wellsburg 01-04
• notes: Earliest known number of this title issued on February 6, 1818 (vol. 3, no. 3), bears the imprimatur of John Berry, formerly a journeyman in office of Samuel Workman; start date derived from that number suggests Workman sold his weekly to Berry at the end of its second volume/year, likely with a brief suspension of publication during the transition, as Workman's second volume should have ended on January 2, 1818. Its title may have been shortened by then, but it is more likely Berry made the change when he bought paper.
