A FREE workshop on historic house research is to be held at the Birmingham Public Library on Saturday, July 18th. Sponsored by the Jefferson County Historical Commission & the Birmingham Historical Society, the event will feature 3 speakers and 2 authors who will be signing books. The event starts at 9:30am, at the Central Library (in Arrington Auditorium). Seems like a great chance for historic homeowners or Realtors who list historic properties to find out how to discover the history of their properties.

I have a house built in 1920 in Ensley Highlands and I am pretty sure it should be historical designation. How do I find out the history on the house and apply for historical designation. This home will be restored over the next two months. Thank you for you time and I look forward to talking with you further on this issue. My direct number is (205) 572-2130.
