The Necromancer

Does anyone know approximately what time the Necromancer, or shadow, fell upon Mirkwood, or is it never mentioned in any of Tolkien's writing?

Gandalf discovered it was Sauron when he ventured into Dol-Guldur, finding things out.

Quote:
'Some here will remember that many years ago I myself dared to pass the doors of the Necromancer in Dol Guldur, and secretly explored his ways, and found thus that our fears were true: he was none other than Sauron, our Enemy of old, at length taking shape and power again.
