Starting September 22, 1977, Mr. Fogelberg wrote a periodical series, Burlington Chronicles, for the Burlington Daily Times (also known as the Woburn Daily Times, Burlington edition). Between 1979 and 1994, John Edward (Ed) Fogelberg wrote just under 800 articles for the weekly column, Burlington: Past and Present, in the Burlington Daily Times. Former Historical Commissioner James B. Ashworth compiled this list of articles. See the Archives’ working files for Mr. Ashworth’s cross reference to the Image Collection (RG123).

 

As of January 29, 2002, a subject index has not been created. The titles are searchable via keyword at www.burlington.org; follow the link to Archives and to Publications. The Fogelberg Collection (2000.08, MS001) contains a large collection of Mr. Fogelberg’s manuscript articles. For a complete run of articles, see the clippings and microfilm at the Burlington Public Library.
