Have you gone to the Jasper County courthouse or city hall to look for land deeds, transfers, and assesments? Also city directories (not phone books) can give you an idea who lived there when and when it may have been torn down if it isn't there any longer?

I am interested in getting information on the home, but have not had much luck with it. Would anybody know anything about where I could look? I've checked the papers and can't find anything.
