[Stonewall deed 1.pdf](https://www.mineralrightsforum.com/uploads/short-url/1Uts2vYFbAiXySZs3VUrihUhwZH.pdf) (192.9 KB) I attached a deed from my grandfather (was a geologist) granting mineral interests he had in Stonewall County. How do I know this was ALL or a partial sell of acres? Do I need the prior original deed to compare? Appreciate your help, Blake

Sometimes when you see these kinds of fractions in a deed, there is still a possibility that some interest could exist. The short answer to your question is that you need to do more research to find out. There’s a webinar on [www.naro-us.org](http://www.naro-us.org) that can show you how to search.

It depends. I do not know who your family was, grantor or grantee nor do I know what future title looks like. To determine these things you need to run the title forward from that time.

Update! The Stonewall clerk found my grandfather’s originating deed from 1948 to compare to later sale deed I had. Good news is he kept about half. I went to the TXRRC and there is no activity. I’ll file an affidavit and cross my fingers. Thanks again.
