Question Number 55
My partner and I have recently purchased a post-war home.
Would information be available related to the development of the neighborhood; the neighborhood plan; builder information; or perhaps even a blue print for the property.
What information would you need to locate this type of information?
Thank you for any links or suggestions to our search for the history of our home.
Janice and Dave
It was not clear from your inquiry where in Alberta your house is located.
The Provincial Archives has a guide to researching houses in Edmonton and another for rural areas. Both of these guides are available on-site.
As for information on the development of the surrounding community, relevant records would probably be held at the municipal archives. Most cities, and many towns, maintain their municipal records at a local archives or museum.
