My grandparents left Montana mineral rights to their 8 children in 1966. The heirs have been receiving small royalty checks since then. Last year’s gross for each was $243.79. I have a legal description for the Bowes Sawtooth Unit, from Citation Oil and Gas Corp, but no legal documents. Am needing to transfer one of the living heirs’ ownership portion to a grandchild. Does anyone have advice on how to do this? Thank you!
Lindsey:
The legal document regarding these mineral rights should be on file at the County Clerk’s Office located in the county where these minerals are located. To give you a possible solution to your question, type in “Quit Claim Deed” in the box located at the top of this forum and read the posts related to this type of deed. I think from what you have stated, this legal instrument might be applicable in your case.
Charles, Thank you for your kind response to my question. I will try this avenue.
