Holmes County Advertiser archives?

Does anyone know the best place to start if I want to look for obits that may have been published in the Holmes County paper? They cover dates in several years: 1898, 1910, 1918, 1926, etc. I'm not even sure that some of my ancestors would have had obituaries published, but I would like to find any that may exist.

Does the newspaper office have copies of papers for all the years, or does one of the university have a collection?

Thanks for any info!
Nancy

Has anyone considered contacting the Holmes County Historical society? Has anyone tried contacting the paper itself?
Has anyone looked at the U of F newspaper holdings?
A little leg work goes a long way.
Good hunting,
