So you bought an old house. A REALLY old house. But you’re not totally sure how old it actually is.
I’ve been there! When we bought our house, we were told it was built in 1912. But my heart said, uh-uh, this is a Folk Victorian and I think it was built in 1905 or ‘06. How do I know? In this episode, I’ll tell you!
You’ll learn:
How NOT to barter canned goods for old house information
Why your local records office is a possible treasure trove of information (and dusty cards)
What I’ve learned about my house’s builder and his family
And so much more!
For all my tips on tracking down your old house history, go to FarmhouseVernacular.com/3 to learn more.
