This might sound crazy, but I am looking for information on the area and the land as early back as possible until now. I am trying to find out the origanal history of the land our home was built on, but I am not getting much information on any souces I have tried thus far. I would appreciate any help anyone could give to point me in the right direction.

Have you tried the property appraisers office? They have an email address.
