I would greatly appreciate any recommendations on record keeping - I have multiple file cabinets with Correspondence, Deeds, Leases, Division Orders and Commission Documents for many counties but don’t feel like it’s a good, concise system.

You can observe qualified professionals (often with localized expertise) who provide services to mineral owners right here on The Mineral Rights Forum. You will notice them in 3 different places on the site:
-
in display image ads and text links on site
-
in our Mineral Service Provider Directory in the main navigation bar above. These are arranged by professional discipline.
-
as a Business Member within many conversations throughout the site Look for the blue colored “B” on their picture and blue colored text).
These practitioners are often able to provide specific (and often localized) services that meet your needs.

Paper, paper paper. It gets to us all.
In the event you’ve got assets enough that may support having a mineral management company look over your stuff, consider that. As part of the program, direct them to digitize all you have (with a pre agreed upon organizitaitonal structure and file naming conventions). Make sure up front that your data is 100% retrievable and portable enough that you can leave at any time. Of course, they’re going to have to make sure it’s all worth their time with some sort of minimum length contract and/or you pay them up front for the time to get it all organized, then go forward.
In short, is it time to get professional help.
