LadyHay Posted January 6, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 6, 2009 ok i am wondering how and were to search for information for certaint area's like accidents that have happened there and police reports and other things, Police reports would be at the police station. Not sure how searchable they are to the public in your area though. Dates are useful for searching newspaper archives. Vital statistics are also useful for searching. Can I ask what you're researching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyHay Posted January 6, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 6, 2009 This one? http://www.strangeusa.com/ViewLocation.aspx?locationid=6560 If so, it is possible your spelling is off. Airplane hangars are spelled with an A, not an E. Does this help at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellfallen Posted January 6, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I actually found a lot on the alleged haunting on Hangerlake road in Las Cruces. I guess you're looking for actual newspaper reports tho, eh? Yes i have read the reports about the haunting but some of the sensitives in the group say they feel like someone died/ got murdered there? but they cant find any information on anything that happened there.

LadyHay Posted January 6, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Yes i have read the reports about the haunting but some of the sensitives in the group say they feel like someone died/ got murdered there? but they cant find any information on anything that happened there. I'll try to help. I'm pretty good at online research, however, you might just have to toddle down to the library/archives/police department to do some physical research!

Pauly Dangerously Posted January 6, 2009 #13 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Is it a military base? Those records tend to be sealed. The city planner's office will have a history of the land, who's owned it and such. Dept. of County records/ Sherrif's Dept. can help determine if anything significant has happened at the county level. Any state level survey of the land should be accesible through the library, but you may have to go to the main Metro library in NM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudshill Posted January 6, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) If you re aware that a murder occured there, you can get reports through the Freedom of Infirmation Act (FOIA), through the local police department.

Hellfallen Posted January 6, 2009 Author #18 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Havecyou tried calling the place? Or write them and ask for any documentation they may be able to provide?

Cloudshill Posted January 6, 2009 #19 Share Posted January 6, 2009 You can check th county tax appraisal records to find the owner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Dangerously Posted January 6, 2009 #20 Share Posted January 6, 2009 It is abandon, and i do not know who is in ownership of the property Break in, and when the cops come, ask them who the owner is. (Just kidding, don't do this.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfallen Posted January 6, 2009 Author #21 Share Posted January 6, 2009 hmm does anyone know a free site for newspaper articles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyHay Posted January 6, 2009 #22 Share Posted January 6, 2009 It is abandon, and i do not know who is in ownership of the property City records should have this. Also, when work is done on a place, a permit must be filed. I found this: http://www.las-cruces.org/ It could help point you in a direction. Also, here in Canada, we have the Wrigley or Henderson Directories. It is a directory that is over 100 years old and they are searchable by reverse addresses, or the person's name. I don't know if you have anything similar. Free newspaper articles are not going to yield much in the way of history. Archived information takes time and money to put online, so this is likely not going to help. University, archives and research type websites usually list the fonds (accumulated documents) though.
