Fairwater Scrapbook
Except for the brief period from 1903 to 1905, when E. L. Howe published the Fairwater Register, area papers primarily in Brandon, Markesan, and Ripon filled the need for local news. Fairwater area items from those and other newspapers are collected in the scrapbook.

The Fairwater Register
Fairwater's only newspaper was published every Friday from 1903 to 1905 by E. L. Howe. Fragments from those 104 issues have been transcribed.
