How do I find out how many actual acres of minerals I own? McKenzie County, North Dakota.

Guessing you didn’t buy the property and inherited it? If so, do you have the will/final decree? That should shed light on what you own. You can try [ndrin.com](http://ndrin.com) and search whomever you got it from, but with the info given, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.

So to the courthouse and run your name forward and backward on every oil lease and mineral deed from the person that you got them from and then run their name. That would give you a good start.
