The T&A, as it's known locally, still exists. They probably have their own archive. If your grandmother wouldn't mind a little press attention (i.e. a photograph in the paper with a brief retelling of her story) then you might want to contact the T&A to ask if they have or know of an indexed archive where the relevant original article might be found. Local newspapers love nothing better than human interest stories about their own history. Cuddly grannies are good community PR.

Apart from that, I second the suggestion of phoning the local studies section of a local library.
