I just moved into a new house and when I went into the basement I noticed that the house burned at one time.Can you tell me when and how it happened and can you tell me if anyone died in this house? Thank You for your time

Hi, bristolcatdog!

If there was a fire there that was significant enough, then most likely it made it into the news. One of the resources that you might want to try would be to contact people at a local newspaper.

Thanks!
