Mary, it depends a lot on the location of your property and the location of the formation. Contact me via email [garyhudman@yahoo.com](mailto:garyhudman@yahoo.com), I will get your legals and can help. If the play is there I can do the lease. GH

please do. I work in a TEAM of investors, land men, geologists and me as a long time operator, headed by a prominent attorney that can get you leased or get you out of a miserable situation in your current lease. I have been an independent operator for over 25 years, an equipment buyer and seller, and pulling unit owner/operator. Thanks for your interest

This county group only has 25 members so feedback is important. Is there any demand around Abstract 5?

I need a copy of a mineral deed dated November 18, 1933 from James Portis et us, Lavinia Portus to A.C. Felt recorded in Vol. 101, Page 357 of the Deed Records of Austin County, Texas. Neither [courthousedirect.com](http://courthousedirect.com) nor [texasfile.com](http://texasfile.com) go back that far. Does anyone know another way to obtain this short of going to the courthouse?

The following is a sponsored (paid) promotional notice:
If you own minerals in Texas or New Mexico, consider attending the NARO – Texas convention in San Antonio July 18-20, 2018. They have a great agenda, good speakers, and the cost is reasonable.
