## Newspaper history

[edit]

The first edition of the paper was circulated on 3 October 1885 by proprietor W. H. Oram.[5] Robert Howland took over as proprietor in 1890, a position he held until his death in 1902. His son Robert A. Howland was the manager and editor.[6] The paper was subsequently published by Robert John Winning, who also owned the Taralga Echo.[7] Following the death of Robert Winning on 6 December 1933, his son John Robert Winning took over as publisher.[8] In December 1949 the Bradley family assisted Jim Woods in buying the paper from Winning. From 1965 the paper was leased by the Bradley/Woods partnership to Brian Dennis until 1983 when printing and production was transferred to The Queanbeyan Age. On 31 December 1995 the paper was sold to Rural Press Ltd.[9] In December 2006, Fairfax Media announced a takeover of Rural Press.[10] As December 2018, the Crookwell Gazette is published both in print and online by Australian Community Media.
