<DIV>Do you know its <EM>complete</EM> history? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm focusing our house history research on Charles Village this
summer, and I've decided to offer a steep discount for our all-inclusive
house histories for CV residents - when I research several homes in a
neighborhood at one time, I can be more efficient and pass the savings on to
you. So, this summer its Charles Village!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We take what is already known about your house (perhaps year built and
architect), verify it, and then expand on it profusely for a
illustrated and fully cited report full of fascinating tidbits and facts about
not only about the architecture, but about each and every individual that has
ever owned or even rented your house over time. Its a genealogy for your
house!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We research the architect, builder, and original owner, and use deed
research to track the change of ownership over time. City Directories and
the censes also allow us to track anyone that even rented your house, far more
common in the past than many people believe, as owners vacations often
lasted 4-6 months or more. Census research allows us to document all the
details of those past occupants of your house; every ten years, it reveals
their age, place of birth, family members, immigration, occupation, language
spoken, what they paid in rent or what the house was worth, and even in the
case of the 1930 census, if the family owned a radio. We even get as
detailed as to consult passport applications to see if your owners traveled
abroad, and where and when. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One of our more exciting abilities with genealogical research is the
ability to track down living relatives of the first occupants or owners of
your home; they are the people that have those rare family photographs of life
in your house 100 years ago or more, the images that never make it into a public
archive (although we look for those, too). They usually have good stories
about your house or how it was used in the past.

<DIV>I'll be glad to send you a pdf of a sample house history in
Baltimore. Our usual fee of $850 has slashed in half for CVers! A
complete house history for the CV area is now just $395 (25th to 33rd, Barclay
to Charles) </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>P. S. Greg and I continue to research the History of Charles Village book,
and we are finally nearing the end. What took longer than we thought was
the amount of history here, and the fact that we didn't want to leave
anything out! </DIV>
