Wheeling Gazette

  • ID: 455
  • End Date: December 31, 1834
  • Frequency: Weekly
  • Lineage ID: 108
  • Proprietors: Robert I. Curtis
  • Start Date: May 8, 1824
  • Variant Number: Wheeling 02-06
  • Notes: With issue of May 8, 1824, Curtis renamed his paper to specifically identify with its locale. For a time during fall of 1828, he conducted the Gazette in partnership with M. C. Hull, a printer in his office, probably his foreman; Hull later removed to New Orleans to manage the press of the newly-founded Picayune there. For a time in 1834, Curtis increased the pace of this title to daily, which apparently compelled him to sell the paper at year's end.
