Index to the American Eagle 1842-1845 Compiled by Joyce McKibben University of Memphis Libraries The Memphis Eagle was founded in 1842 as a weekly Whig paper known as the American Eagle. Its chief rival was the Democratic-leaning Memphis Appeal. In late 1842 the paper began putting out a daily paper, the Memphis Eagle, while continuing the weekly American Eagle. The weekly paper was a compilation of articles that appeared in the daily paper. For that reason, I switched over to indexing articles in the daily Memphis Eagle in 1846. In late 1851 the Eagle merged with the Memphis Enquirer to become the Memphis Eagle-Enquirer. We have the following issues on microfilm in the University of Memphis libraries: American Eagle 1842-1848 Memphis Eagle (daily) 1846-1850 April 22 & May 15, 1851 Memphis Eagle Enquirer (daily) January-June 1852 January-June 1853 July 27, 1855 March 7, 1856 Notes: 1.An entry cited as: August 28, 1836, 2:4 can be found on August 28, 1836, page 2, column 4. 2.The only issue available for 1845 is July 14.
