History

The Journal Inquirer was formed in 1968 with the merging of two weekly newspapers, the Rockville Journal and the South Windsor Inquirer. The Rockville Journal dates back over 105 years.

The paper moved from a garage in the Rockville section of Vernon to its present location in Manchester in 1974.

The Journal Inquirer uses the "Oxford" or serial comma, unlike most American newspapers that follow the AP Stylebook.
