Jamaica Newspapers Over History, there have been many Jamaica Newspapers.The Tralawny and Public Advertiser, for example was a four page publication that made all the local island news available from the 1870's. The Falmouth Post and General Advertiser was also published in Falmouth, Jamaica, and again it existed in the late 1800's. The Jamaica Witness, The Cornwall Chronicle and General Advertiser, The Jamaica Courant and Public Advertiser, the Jamaica Creole and the Galls Newsletter were all, at one time, (some as early as the 1750's!) Jamaica Newspapers carrying Jamaican News, especially the local births, deaths and shipping news. Today, the Island is served by The Gleaner, a newspaper that commenced publication in 1834, and the Jamaica Observer. Both of these have online copies or E-Copies.
