That's an interesting question. If the home has close neighbors, the closest ones that have lived there for the longest period of time would usually know. If its an older home, no one may know for sure. You could also check the tax rolls for the previous owners name and search the internet for this name to find out more about the previous owner. If you are interested in a particular home. I don't think there is a particular site you can go to and search the site for that particular information. You might want to call your county officials and pose this question also, starting with thte coroner - Wed Nov 18 2009, 01:35
