Hello all, I am reasonably new to family history, so I hope someone out there will take pity on me! My grandparents were divorced sometime between 1946 and 1950. My father and his sister were made Wards of Court and it was pretty bitter. As this was relatively unheard of, I imagine it must have been reported in the local papers - my grandad was a well known local businessman. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can locate archive newspapers? I don't even have a title! I have tried the British Library and Google, but am struggling. Help! Many thanks
