my home is located at 6681 S Sheridan Rd. Sheridan MI 48884. It is an old farmhouse and I know it is over 100 years old. I also know the name of the current owner.

Here is a link to an excellent "WikiHow" article entitled "How to Research the History of Your House":
http://www.wikihow.com/research-the-hist...
It offers step-by-step instructions and advice and is fairly thorough. I recommend it as a good place to start.
Good luck with your search for your home's history.

Try Zillow.com first. They may have the tax records on it, for free, although it may not work in your area yet. But, you can still have loads of fun on it seeing what your friends house is worth and what they paid for it.
Or,
A stop at the local assessor's office will yield the results your looking for. If they don't have it, they will tell you who does. Sometimes government employees can be very useful. Just try to smile alot and be really nice to them, they are not used to it. It freaks them out and they'll give you anything you want to leave.

The county Tax Assessor's office has all the info on the property since it started to be taxed.
