The Ironton Tribune

The Ironton Tribune started publication on August 1, 1928, when the Irontonian and the Ironton Register were merged into one publication. The Register was founded in 1850 and the Irontonian in 1874. The Tribune was acquired by Boone Newspapers in 1979. The Tribune moved to its new building at 2903 S. Fifth St. in 1974.
