I am starting with Texas, and Glasscock County. I have used GlasscockCAD to search for properties in my owner’s name. (Those free websites do help a bit; that’s how I found your group.) I have division orders from my operators. I wanted to use my sheets (from CAD webpage) to match to my division orders, but the information I read on my deeds (property names and description) vary from the division orders.
For example, my deeds may say “1/64 royalty interest in and to oil … in XX,XXX acres, being Sections 4, 9, 12, 13, 14, 22, 24, 26, 27, 35, 36 and 37, Block 36, Township 4 South, T&P RY Co. survey, Glasscock County, Texas, and being more particularly described in vol 67 page 550 of the deed records of Glasscock County.” (That’s a mouthful and yet only the description.) The exhibit continues… “a” “.0195xx royalty interest in the above described Section 27, Block 36—Morris B Antwiel—Joe C. Calverley Acct #1 Lease—Spraberry Trend Area Field AND,” (then 25 other descriptions for the same item number)
Then my division order might read as… Property Number 430090.010H.1 (COG Ref Number), Property Name Calverley 9-4 10H, Map Description Sec; 9, 4;36 t4s;0 T&P, Survey
I would appreciate any help on clarifying deed property descriptions with operator property descriptions and names. Maybe I do have a lot of properties to match up with their respective deeds and operators across the great state of Texas.
Thank you.
