If you’re interested in your house’s history, you can find past residents of many Portland-area houses in two ways:
Look in old city directories (which are similar to phone books)
Search for the house’s address in digital newspaper archives
To get started, gather some basic facts about your house and your neighborhood. This will help you plan your research.
