The Amboy News

Amboy Illinois' hometown newspaper, since 1854, has taken to Facebook! It was a 5-column, 4 page paper.

The first Amboy paper was known as The Amboy Journal and was started by Judge Alonzo Kinyon in 1854 at the time of the founding of the city of Amboy. On April 3, 1856, the name of the paper was changed to The Amboy Times and became a 6-column, 4 page paper. Since then, the paper changed hands several times and before long there were two papers circulating in Amboy; The Amboy Journal, started in 18

70, and The Amboy News, which was reported to have started in 1878. The merger of these two papers resulted in the first issue of The Amboy News on October 10, 1913.
