Still independently owned, it is currently run and written by Joan Lawrence-Bauer, with a headquarters in Arkville, NY.[1] HistoryThe News traces its roots to the foundation of the Utilitarian in 1863.[2] The first newspaper in the town of Margaretville, the paper was published by Orson M. Allaben.[3][4] After passing through a number of hands it was purchased by the Catskill Mountain News. In 1894, the Margaretville Messenger was founded by a stock company, which hired as editor John Grant.[3] It continued to 1902, when it was sold to W. E. Eells, who renamed it the Catskill Mountain News.[3] When Eells died suddenly, just two years later, Clarke Sanford, a local schoolteacher, approached his widow about the paper.[5][6] Eells's widow offered to let Sanford run it on credit. If he were to make a profit, he would pay her the purchase price; if not, she would reclaim the paper. Sanford agreed to the terms and after a tough initial few years made good on the loan.[5] Sanford would run the paper for over 60 years,[5] presiding over the expansion of the newspaper. In 1918, he purchased the Utilitarian, altering the News's numbering to date back to that paper's 1863 founding.[3][7] He also invested in updated Linotype printing, and changed locations as the paper grew.[3] The paper would be passed on to Clarke's son Roswell, on his death in 1964. In turn it was passed to Roswell's son Richard D. Sanford.[8] By 1990, the paper was struggling, which the younger Sanford believed was a result of low overall economic activity in New York's more rural areas.[8] Sanford noted that with shopping increasingly being concentrated in larger stores in more central cities, advertising in rural towns was less sustaining: "Stamford is about 25 miles out of Oneonta, and the growth of the Oneonta market has had a corresponding negative impact on the retail industry in Stamford."[8] He went on to note the future of the publication was a relentlessly local focus, and that of the weeklies he published Catskill Mountain News was the most robust.[8] In 2017, the paper was sold to Joan Lawrence-Bauer,[7][9] a former writer for the News.[9] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.catskillmountainnews.com/contact|title=Contact Us|last=|first=|date=|website=Catskill Mountain News|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 2. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://www.mondotimes.com/1/world/us/32/8178/23563|title=Catskill Mountain News|last=|first=|date=|website=Mondo Times|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=12 October 2018}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite journal|last=Faibisoff|first=Sylvia|last2=Hillman|first2=Linda|date=April 1973|title=A Bibliography of Newspapers in Fourteen New York State Counties|url=|journal=New York History|volume=|pages=|via=}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://mtownhistory.org/communities/village-of-margaretville/|title=Village of Margaretville|last=|first=|date=|website=The Historical Society of the Town of Middletown|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 5. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/24486432/60_years_a_newspaperman/|title=60 Years a Newspaperman|last=|first=|date=2 May 1964|work=The Oneonta Star|access-date=12 October 2018}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.dcnyhistory.org/books/marghst4.html|title=History and Stories of Margaretville and Surrounding Area|last=Riedinger|first=Joyce|date=|website=www.dcnyhistory.org|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2018-10-07}} 7. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://mtownhistory.org/2017/08/09/history-as-it-happened-a-tribute-to-catskill-mountain-news/|title=History as it Happened: a tribute to Catskill Mountain News|last=|first=|date=|website=The Historical Society of the Town of Middletown|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 8. ^1 2 3 {{Cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/24486909/weeklies_stay_in_black_with_community/|title=Weeklies stay in black with community focus|last=|first=|date=3 September 1990|work=Press and Sun-Bulletin|access-date=12 October 2018}} 9. ^1 {{Cite news|url=http://www.catskillmountainnews.com/news/2016-09-14/News/Joan_LawrenceBauer_to_become_News_owner.html|title=Joan Lawrence-Bauer to become News owner|last=|first=|date=14 September 2016|work=Catskill Mountain News|access-date=}} 2 : Newspapers published in New York (state)|Delaware County, New York |
