I have 3 mineral rights tracts in Caddo County I inherited from my Dad. They were given to him from his Dad. Is there a way to see these tracts of land to view the pattern my Granddad used to purchase tracts?
They are listed as:
1. Section 29-10N-11W (active Staghorn)
2. Section 28-10N-10W (active Binger)
3. Section 18-10N-10W (new lease offer from CLR)

Hello AlanR1,
We have mineral acres in Township 29, Range 10N, Range 11W that have been in the family for years. An older well, GSA 1-29, has been producing for years but as you say, it is reaching the end of its life as a vertical well. Most recently, Staghorn has been pursuing horizontal wells like API #3501523346 INDEPENDENCE 10-11-32-33-04. Have a look at the two attachments to see how many horizontals are being drilled. I’m not sure what information you are trying to find but the forum is a good place to build relationships with people who can help you.

GSA 1-29 has been in family for a long time. My Granddad, Otis A Roberts, had these leases prior to his death in 1965. The attachments you provided are helpful. Where are these tracts located? Caddo County is southwest of Oklahoma City, so is this farmland? My interest is figuring out my Granddad’s method of buying these leases decades ago. He had at least one tract in McClain County; there may be more counties around that area where he bought these leases. Doubt he owned the land, but it is possible.

This PLSS map may help - although this shows the whole Section of each of your listed Sections - your tract will depend on more details but here are the locations of the Sections in Caddo County.

Did he only buy the minerals or the actual farmland? The whole county is not just farmland, and never was. A little history: When my Grandpa retired from farming in the late 40s, he & Grandma moved to town (Hinton). Anadarko is well known, and there are many other small towns. Caddo County was opened for white settlement in 1901 after the federal government confiscated Indian lands, and like the Cherokee runs of 1889 and 1993, brought lots of new settlers. And, then a decade later, we get to the discovery of oil in Caddo County.
I don’t know what kind of pattern you are looking for, as opportunity to purchase land or mineral rights would have more to do with it than anything. I’m sure my Grandpa and most farmers just bought farms as they came up for sale; he had two close together, and one across the county line. And, that’s the way it still works today.
There are many land/area maps available that would show the areas of your mineral rights, so you could see distances between them. Or, it would be easy to figure out and draw your own maps if you understand how Sections, Townships, and Ranges are laid out.

Do you know if your granddad bought the mineral leases or inherited them? If he inherited them, there may not have been any strategy involved. They just landed in his lap. Do you have any historical files from your father or grandfather? If you can locate copies of the quitclaim deeds for the minerals, you can learn a lot. The original land patents (grants of ownership from the US government) were executed around 1906. The Caddo County land records are not easily accessible online but the County Clerk may be able to help you.

Here is an old Caddo county abstract map. You can keep a clean copy and make another copy and find your tracts on it. I make notes on mine in the margins.

I don’t know truly how he and my Uncle obtained these leases. But my Grandfather owned a General Store in Dillworth around 1917 where my Dad was born. The family was involved in farming in Kansas and Illinois. My Uncle, Harry H Diamond, lived in Holdenville but I’m not sure what his occupation was. But Grandad and my Uncle started wildcatting sometime after WWII. They had wells in Oklahoma, Colorado, and Wyoming. My Grandfather went broke in Wyoming after he drilled 10 dry holes. He then transferred all of his mineral rights to my Dad before bankruptcy. I am finding more and more tracts as time goes on. Just trying to get an idea as to where there may be more and/or see his method of obtaining the tracts. My Dad went to OU where he earned a Petroleum Engineering Degree and became my Grandfather’s geologist for a short time. Dad worked on his Dad’s rigs as a roughneck during college breaks. I’m just now trying to learn more about the work they did and where all they went.

Thanks, that helps me see how tracts are laid out. Huge help to me Ms Barnes.

This is a picture of Harry Diamond at a well site in Weston County, Wyoming.

So reading through some obits of the family, Harry Diamond graduated from OU Law School in 1912 and went into business with Harris-Mann-Diamond. In 1915 he quit law and went into the oil business. He was a member of Phi Delta Phi Law Fraternity. He was responsible for the construction of St Francis Hospital in Holdenville. He also donated land for Diamond School, I assume in Holdenville. I know you probably have no interest in this information, I’m just trying to figure out how he and my Grandfather got into oil business. These landmarks may be something still around in Holdenville.

Love seeing this old history. Our ancestors were a tenacious and smart bunch of folks.

I’m almost certain that Harry H. Diamond ended up in Shawnee.

That was my Grandfather’s son Harry H “Bud” Diamond. Bud went to Holdenville High School and Culver Military Academy. He graduated from OU with a degree in Business. He was president of Harry H Diamond Inc. He was a member of Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association and American Association of Professional Landmen.
