Hi
A friend sent me an extract from The New York Times dated 12 Nov 1877
entitled 'some old violins' It was a reprint of an article dated Nov 9th
1877 from the Louisville Courier Journal. It said that a Mr Thomas L Clarke
'of this city' was the owner of a 250 year old Cremona violin which used to
belong to a John McMurdo of Dumfries Scotland. It said that the Courier
Journal had published a history of this violin in March 1877. I would
really like to read this ...it might explain how the violin got to US from
Scotland and whether there is any connection between the McMurdos and Thos L
Clarke.
I found a website and emailed the paper which is still functioning but got a
reply saying that they don't have archives going that far back but that I
should "check with the library for further assistance"
I live in England ...where normally the publisher retains any existing
archive or we have a National Newspaper library. So I'm a bit baffled as to
what they mean by "checking with the library" Is there a national USA
newspaper library? ... or some kind of online resource available through a
public library? Or a library in Louisville?
Or does anyone have Thomas L Clarke of Louisville in their tree?
