London Times Digital Archive (1785-1985)

By David Murray on July 4, 2006 4:46 PM | | Comments (2)

The Times Digital Archive, another major newspaper acquisition by Temple Libraries, is a searchable, full-text and full-image archive of every page of the (London) Times from 1785 to 1985. This database has obvious appeal to anyone studying the history of Britain and her Empire. The database complements Eighteenth Century Collections Online (ECCO), an important new resource recently discussed in the Library Blog.

I am researching a glider pilot during D-Day on June 6th, 1944. His name is John H. Winkler, Sr. and was with the 437th Troop Carrier Group and the 86th squadron. He was captured by the German's the following Day and was able to escape a couple of days later. John made it back to Ramsbury, England about June 30th, 1944. Apprently there was a article in the London Times about this story around the time of July 6th, 1944. I would appreciate any information on retreaving this article. Thanks.
