615 Niles Street Bakersfield

I lived at a house on 615 Niles St. in Old Town Kern part of Bakersfield. The house was well over a hundred years old and when I came to live there I was caring for 4 children whose father was dying from Leukemia. They had no mother. After the father passed the children would report seeing him in the dining room which is where he spent most of his time at the dining table in front of a picture window that looked out onto Niles. I promised this man on his deathbed that I would care for his children. I engaged in court battle to keep them to no avail. A relative won custody and removed them to another state. I continued to live in the house and subsequently married a man who had a daughter who was the same age as the dead mans daughter, When she would visit we would experience many unexplained incidents that were scary and on one occasion we had to send her home because it got so bad she had to sleep with us because we feared she would be hurt by objects flying through the house. My Brother-in-law who rented a room from us also stated he got the willies in the dining and kitchen area when he would leave for work at around 3-4am through the back of the house. I always felt a rush of fridgid air pass through me when I was in that same area of the house. I would see shadows in my periphiel view. I also think because of the age of the house that there were other spirits besides the dead mans whose children I cared for. I would like to research the history but I'm not sure how to. Any Thoughts?
