Early Hawaii Newspaper Index

Bob Krauss Research Index
Bob Krauss (1924-2006) wrote for the Honolulu Advertiser for fifty five years. One of his research strategies was to review older newspapers on microfilm and to take notes on index cards. The newspapers Krauss turned to were the Honolulu Advertiser and its predecessor the Pacific Commercial Advertiser (published since 1856); the Honolulu Star-Bulletin (published under various titles since 1870); and The Polynesian, (1840-1841, 1844-1864).

The index is by no means comprehensive in subject or time coverage. It largely reflects Krauss’ research interests. Nonetheless it provides critical starting points into Hawaiʻi’s newspaper literature, covering periods of time and subjects in newspaper titles that have been formally indexed nowhere else.
