Hello, I’m new here.
Does anyone know of a tutorial that will explain this legal description on my deed? I have figured out the Township and Range, and located it on Google Maps, but the first part of it is all Greek to me:
Grady County Oklahoma RI 1/2 x 5/48 x 1/8 RIW/2 SW/4 Section 24-9N-5W
Thanks for your help.
Patrick

Most sections are divided into 4 – 160 acre tracts for a total of 640 acres in the section.
Examples of Legal Descriptions: SW/4 160 acres W/2 SW/4 80 acres (this one is yours) N/2 SW/4 80 acres NW/4 SW/4 40 acres N/2 NW/4 SW/4 20 acres NW/4 SW/4 SE/4 10 acres S/2 NW/4 SW/4 SE/4 5 acres
I would have to see the document you are using to hazard a guess on what the numbers mean.
I usually only see figures like yours when there is a working interest involved.
It could mean you own 1/2 of a 5/8 mineral interest in the 80 acre tract and that it is leased at a 1/8.
Just a weird way of writing it and it is only a guess.
