@Mendocino @Sailor Haumea @ChrisR I have a useful tip about finding old newspapers from Google. I have recently discovered this.

You go to Google Books, then where it says "Any document", click on it and then click on "Newspapers" and where it says "Any time", click on it and then click on "Custom range" to insert your own date range. You can also click on "Magazines" instead of "Newspapers" if you want to search magazines instead.

Interesting that old Spanish newspapers can so easily be searched. What website(s) are you using for this purpose?

Based on this information, I was able to do some revalidation research that confirmed that the man who died in 1983 is the very same man who was born back in 1872. If you want, I can post this research in my own thread. Do you?
