If anyone out there has a newspapers.com membership, I desperately need a copy of a newspaper article (maybe do a screenshot or save as a pdf and e-mail to me?)
I'll be happy to do a lookup and copy for you as well. I have memberships to genealogybank and fold3, and of course Ancestry.com USA.
The newspaper is The Cameron Herald (from central Texas), date is 19 July 1945. Article is on page 7, written by a WWII POW Frank Newton about his experiences in a German prison camp. He talks about one of my relatives in the article. I'm only able to get the badly translated text from the site (with weird spellings and symbols) without the membership.
I'll message you my e-mail, and like I said, I'd be happy to do a lookup for you as well!

Thanks so much if you can help!
If noone replies here's a few things to try:
-Contact a library that is local to where the newspaper was printed & ask if they have it on microfilm. You have the date & page, so they should be able to make a copy of the article for you.
-Check if your local library offers newspapers.com on their computers.

I have access to newspapers.com, and I did a quick check of Texas cities. Unfortunately, the site does not contain a single scanned issue of the The Cameron (TX) Herald.
As the other writer suggested, you might need to contact the local library in Cameron to see if they have it on microfiche or you should contact the newspaper directly (if it still exits) to track down a copy.
I'm certain it's on newspapers.com, because that's where I found it. I just can't view the original without a membership.
Enrico, thanks, I'll DM you.
