The Bakersfield Californian
The Bakersfield Californian is a historic newspaper serving Kern County, California, with origins dating back to 1866. Initially founded as a weekly publication in Havilah, it moved to Bakersfield in 1872 and has undergone several mergers and name changes, ultimately adopting its current title in 1907 under the ownership of Alfred Harrell. The newspaper offers a daily publication that includes local news, obituaries, and community updates. It features a significant digital archive with over 207,000 searchable pages from 1907 to 1977, preserving articles, legal notices, and obituaries. The Bakersfield Californian focuses on the development of Kern County, highlighting key events such as the 1899 Kern River oil discovery and various mid-20th-century infrastructure projects. Its long-standing presence makes it a vital resource for local residents, businesses, and institutions.
