Index of Historic Plymouth Mail, 1887 - May, 1915 The first issue of the Plymouth Mail was printed on September 16, 1887. This was a weekly newspaper that contained information concerning people, places and happenings in and around not only Plymouth, but much of western Wayne County, Michigan. The Plymouth Mail became the Plymouth Mail and Observer and then changed into The Plymouth Observer in 1975, the name by which it is known today. For the past twenty-five years, dedicated volunteers at the Plymouth District Library have abstracted information from the Plymouth Mail and created an electronic index of the resulting names, events, and dates. The index covering the years 1887 through 1915 is now fully searchable from this page.

We are greatful for their generous support.
