About us

The Gleaner has a distinguished history as a community newspaper, and is the only daily of that name in the United States.

Its genealogy includes two main branches, which after they joined resulted in the paper being called The Gleaner-Journal between 1954 and 1973.

The Journal was incorporated Sept. 14, 1883, and its first edition hit the streets Dec. 10. The Gleaner, meanwhile, was founded in Providence by C.C. Givens in May of 1883, but made a stop in Madisonville for two years before making its Henderson debut in July 1885.

Both were weeklies at the time, and initially underwent a series of owners. The Journal, which was founded by the Henderson Publishing Co. with Col. E.L. Starling as editor, became a daily April 9, 1889, a year after The Gleaner. The Gleaner was initially an evening paper, while the Journal was a morning edition, but those roles were reversed when Leigh Harris acquired both papers.
