Welcome!
Welcome to the Walton County Genealogy Society newspaper archives!
A collection of DeFuniak Herald and Breeze newspapers on 16 mm film is available for viewing at the Walton County Heritage Museum. The collection includes newspapers from 15 July 1909 through 14 March 1912 and from 1 January 1914 through 30 December 1915 as well as more recent papers from the 1990s.
At this time, excerpts from the Breeze newspaper for the period April 1910 through March 1912 are posted here. You can use the search tool to begin your exploration, or you may prefer to select a category or tag. Those who contributed articles to this database are noted when known, and we thank them for sharing their research.
Bound copies of both newspapers are available at the Clerk of Court’s office in the Walton County Courthouse in DeFuniak Springs. You may also want to check The Heritage Collection for other sources.
