Abstract

The last issue of the Salisbury News and Advertiser, Vol. 135, No. 10, March 6, 2002.

Administrative History

The Salisbury News & Advertiser has occupied an important place in the business history of Wicomico County with its establishment in 1867. R. Reese Morgan, who with his father John Morgan started Salisbury's first paper The Sentinel in 1859, returned from the Civil War and began the Salisbury Advertiser with partner Samuel Q. Parker in 1867. The Salisbury Advertiser grew into one of the region's principal newspapers during the decades that followed, absorbing other papers along the way.
