I used to do addressing. It could be in the post office’s red book, but I doubt it.

If I were looking into this for a customer, I’d ask for the home owner’s name and pull the deed from the recorder of deeds. If you follow the sale of the property (grantor to grantee) to present day, you could see where that parcel is now.

It’s also possible that the property has been subdivided or consolidated, so it may not be exactly the same as it was. Another great place to find historical information is the assessment office. They may have notes about the owners, address, and even photos.
