    You can find me on Spokeo if you have my email address, but if you search me by my name, there are literally at least 7000 other people with the same name in Ohio. Used to hate my common name, now it's not so bad.

    Well obviously if you bought your place with cash or bought it from family for like $10 there will be no morgauge data but unless your state is way different from mine and the ones near me, or you rent, there should still be the deed that was recorded in the courthouse as a legal document on the transfer of your property.

    There are companies with databases that pool all public information. As others have said, ANY information that has been provided to a local, state, or federal entity is used. People would be surprised what is available online.

    That is why there was such a stink about not filling out the full census forms of 2010.

    I got the american community census about 5 yrs ago and another last yr. This is different form the census that counts people in your house. This one gives all the creepy info, like where you work your spouse, number of rooms in your house bathrooms kitchens, education, spices, hours you work she works, income, vacation days, days off, work hours, how far you drive, how many houses you have and how big, how many 1 ton trucks, do you ride a bike, public transit.

    All of those are on there it takes like half an hour to fill out!!! I was mad this yr and just put down how many lived in house. They called every time and said I had to by law fill it out , I said the only thing the constitution states is that you get a count of the people which I gave them. They kept telling me the law required it and was I refusing to fill it out. I repeadily told them no I answered with how many people live there and by the way I filled it out 4-5 yrs earlier just look at all that data it was the same, I said well add $5k to my income if you like. They said I could not of filled it out cause its only every 10 years I said nope I filled it out and gave examples of the questions. And said I'm not filling it out again for 5 more years if I do it then. One worker even got mad and hung up on me and I was just talking Normal just not giving him the answers he wanted. They kept telling g me I filled out the census and was mistaken. I said how do you mistake 2 for 15 pages of questions. Finally they sent a person out they got my wife at the house. She had our newborn in her arms and she answered a few of the questions. I told her she should of said no and for them to leave, she is a big softer though.

    I was mad about the whole thing. They kept telling me I did not k how what I was talking about and no way I could of filled it out. Andhow was iI sure. I told them cause I have only lived in this house 6 years and about the first year or two I remember doing it on my couch at this house thats how.

    With my job I get that info in a few minutes on the computer. I havent really looked out of state but anything in the area I work in is easy to find. You can also go backwards on that and use it to find any other properties they own in the county.

    As said above it is very nice for woodworking. On the burning side its a pleasure to work with and burn. The BTU isnt anything great, its middle of the road. But its easy to split, looks great, smells even better, and I just really like it. Also a great cooking wood.
