Make that 1943 for the family ownership. The paper's first issue was, indeed, 1898.
It's easy to edit Wikipedia but not so easy to figure out who first posted the item on Nov. 14. Looks like somebody with the name neomandude60.

Wikipedia and us
I noticed this morning on Google Alerts that the Tracy Press has made the big time. Somebody recently listed us in Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia. I really like the second line.
Can anyone explain how items are added to Wikipedia? Who wrote this, and would you have written it the same way?
Take a look!The newspaper of Tracy, California that's been run by the Matthews since 1898. Bob Matthews is the publisher and Cheri Matthews is the editor. It's probably the only San Francisco East Bay newspaper not owned by MediaNews Group.
The Tracy Press endorsed Republican Richard Pombo when he was defeated by Jerry McNerney in the 2006 midterm election and the same year endorsed Celeste Garamendi, the sister of Democrat John Garamendi, when she was defeated by Republican Brent Ives for mayor. Its editorials are usually more conservative than its articles.
