The Buffalo Enquirer, also known briefly as The Daily Star, was a daily newspaper in Buffalo, New York that was published from 1891 through 1926.
The Buffalo Enquirer was co-founded by George Rehbaum and William B. Held.[1] Established in 1891, the paper was originally published from 509 Main St. in Buffalo, New York.[2] In the autumn of 1892 the Buffalo newspaperman W. J. Connors Sr. and businessman E. G. S. Miller co-purchased the paper with Rehbaum and Held still owning some shares in the paper.[3] [2] Charles J. Kingsley became the managing editor of the paper at this point.[2] In 1895 W. J. Connors Sr. bought out his partners and became the sole owner of the paper.[3] [4] [5] At this time the newspaper relocated to 250 Main St.[2]
In 1919 W. J. Connors Jr., the son of W. J. Connors Sr., became publisher of the paper.[6] Connors Jr. purchased The Buffalo Enquirer in 1925 and at that time it was re-named The Daily Star.[4] The paper ceased publication in 1926.[4]
