History edit

The original publisher and printer of the Gwydir Examiner and Moree General Advertiser was Arthur Edward Vincent from 1883-1899. Emma Jane Midgley is thought to have taken over from him after that time.[1]

The Gwydir Examiner and Moree General Advertiser was published under that title until 2 September 1899. Its other title was the Gwydir Examiner.[2]

It then changed its title to the Moree Examiner and General Advertiser on 5 September 1899.[3] It continued under that title until 3 September 1901 when it changed its title to the Moree Gwydir Examiner and General Advertiser on 7 September 1901 (absorbing the Moree News).[4]

The Moree Gwydir Examiner and General Advertiser was first published on 7 September 1901 under this title, by Emma Jane Midgley, and continued under that title until 19 December 1940.[4]
