Your local Council should have a public records office for which you can get a day pass, this permits you look at old records in respect of your house. Deeds, sale documents, electoral registers. You can actually find out the names of every previous owner but bare in mind the War years are harder to trace due to citizen's being offically "hidden" so as to make things difficult for the enemy should there have been an invasion. Good Luck!

The Census, Land Registry even the local council may be able to assist.
If you own the house, you can always ask for a copy of all previous conveyances from whomever is storing your deeds.
Alternatively, a solicitor can ask for the deeds to be delivered to him on undertaking (meaning he won't give them to you) and you may be able to copy details whilst in the solicitors office.
Good luck.
