The title deeds often give a good idea of previous owners etc.....then you could research the names?

I got a whole load of stuff off the solicitor when I got the title deeds.

Hello

Have you seen anything that made you suspicious or someone told you the house was haunted?

Well , its happened twice .. my dad has seen 2 figures , a small boy about 7-10 years of age , wearing trousers , shirt and bow tie but with no face. that was the first time .

2nd time he then saw the same boy with a man . dont know any info about the man.

And also my mum has seen some form of shoulder / upper body whilst in the kitchen.

The house we live in is a victorian house , at least 100 + years old . There are only a few on our road , they were owned by the mill owners in the olden days .

So my mum and dad wanted to do some research into the history of the house and its owners.
