Why would Baptist Foundation of Texas be on my lease on file under my name?

That sounds backwards. The grant **or** is the less **or** (mineral own **er** ) and the grant **ee** is the compan **y** or agent that leases.

It sounds like an ancestor gave part of their minerals to an heir and made the Baptist Foundation an owner or the residual owner if the heir dies. Would have to see the original probate or granting language to actually figure it out.
