Matagorda County Area Newspaper Collection
Serving Matagorda County and the towns it encompasses, the Matagorda County Area Newspaper Collection serves as a window into a unique part of Texas history. Named for the canebrakes that once grew along the coast, Matagorda County was founded in 1836, and the newspaper collection available here starts in 1856 and moves up to 1924. Newspapers in this collection were digitized through the support of a Matagator Foundation award to the Matagorda County Museum & Bay City Public Library.
