Judith,

Smaller towns are more likely to have newspaper articles about a family moving away, or other tidbits about the personal lives of residents.  You can look for archived digitized online newspapers that covered Alachua County at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_online_newspaper_archives#Florida

Just look for the heading "Florida" and you'll see several newspaper databases to search.
Your best bet to search may be: 
Florida Digital Newspaper Library full text and images of over 380 current and historical newspapers from Florida Free

Good luck in your search,
