Inherited 80 acres some time back and have not been able to get a good view of where it is. My info is East Section 23 Block C-7. Can anyone help me with a website to clarify?

I suspect you’re in Section 23, Block C-7 PSL. That legal is Abstract 5261. It’s near Toyah Lake.

Mike, I’ve never done this, but I’m trying to send you a picture of where your property question is. The red square in the center of the picture is Block C-7, Section 23. Hope this works.

I sent you two, Aubrey/Bill. If you want one closer up, let me know. This map is from 1945 so you have to take that into consideration!

Folks – try these free online interactive maps:

Texas General Land Office Map Viewer:

[http://gisweb.glo.texas.gov/glomap/index.html](http://gisweb.glo.texas.gov/glomap/index.html)

Texas Railroad Commission Map Viewer (select ‘[Launch New Public GIS Viewer](http://wwwgisp.rrc.state.tx.us/GISViewer2)’ in center of screen)

[http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/data/online/gis/index.php](http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/data/online/gis/index.php)

Invaluable once you study their abilities. Later – Buzz

Buzz, I was hoping I could give people a general idea of where in the county their property is, the online maps are great, but when you zoom out, it’s sometimes difficult to tell where you… were! Linton

Linton – didn’t mean to take away from your snapshot of the Texas Land Survey Map. The interactive maps add so much more… showing permitted well locations and API #s, inactive and active oil and gas well locations, oil and gas pipelines, pooling units, etc., etc. You can get a 17" x 22" Land Survey Map for Reeves County from Midland Map Company.

Ouch, Buzz, I just checked out the Reeves County map at Midland Map Company, pretty pricey at $578! Adios, Linton

Linton – there must be some explanation other than inflation… the 17 x 22 map I described was obtained from Midland Map Company on 8-9-13 for $10.00. The invoice described it as “GLO Map - Reeves”. Their phone number is: 432 682-1603
