Former Katherine S. Scahill - Dies Aged 50 - Historical Newspapers - Delaware County Daily Times, Chester, Pennsylvania

This is an extract from Ancestry.com

The Delaware County Daily Times is a daily newspaper, published in the Primos section of Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania in the United States. It is one of the only major newspapers in the state to be branded with a county name rather than a city. It has a politically liberal bent and is known for its colorful "Sound Off" feature.

The newspaper began as the Chester Daily Times in 1876. Its current name was adopted in 1959 and its offices left the economically declining City of Chester, Pennsylvania for Primos, an unincorporated postal designation in Upper Darby Township. According to the Journal Register Company, it has the largest circulation of any suburban paper in the Philadelphia area. The Sunday edition is known as the Delaware County Sunday Times.
