Are our Mineral Rights involved

We have 180 acres of mineral rights we own or so between Hockley & Terry County TX.. we have not leased since 2011 but on certain sites I see lots of leases happening in both counties. . How would we know if they possibly are on the land that we own mineral rights on? Does shady stuff like this happen without owners ever knowing? Just curious to any advice you can give. Amy

No I own in both counties. There are spots where 0 is going on

We can help with more precision if you give the county, block name or number, Abstract name and number and section. Sometimes wells are permitted offsite from the lease and drilled under it, so need the location to hunt for wells nearby.

If you haven’t already, it wouldn’t hurt to check unclaimed property.

Hi! Any help is greatly appreciated!

160 acres of land more or less being the north east corner of section 80, block 4-x. It’s a mineral deed from 1947 from my great grandparents It’s recorded in volume 96 page 55 in Terry County Texas.

80 acres of land more or less being the east one quarter of the north 1/2 of section 80 block four – X

Maybe this helps let me know if not, I’ll get you more information! The property conveyed from RR White to Annie Campbell White Smith the mineral dated October 1, 1947 recorded in volume 96 page 55 and Terry County Texas!

Thank you! :blush:

Do have the abstract name and number? I can find 4X, and I found several section 80s. Does N. Sanders abstract !-1075 show up in the volume paragraph? No wells are in that set of acreage.
