Landman Chain-of-Title & Leasehold Forensic Brief · Angelina County

The Angelina County Official Public Records describe a parent acquisition series vesting tract, mineral, and leasehold estates in Duval Corp, followed by four indexed instruments involving conveyances and retained subsurface interests under OCR Body Key 1981_58047. The index identifies no blanket corporate exit deeds, but it does not establish the terms of each instrument, the acreage affected, the present mineral ownership, or the absence of later transfers. The RRC ledger lists DUVAL CORPORATION under P-5 236494 as inactive and delinquent, with M. FRED OWEN, G. E. ATWOOD, and D. J. BOURNE among its officers. That operator status is not a determination of mineral title. The listed operated leases and wells outside Angelina County do not establish production on an Angelina County tract.

Field Notes & Historical Curiosities

Why the Angelina County Land Records Look the Way They Do Today

Every old subdivision map and deed book in Angelina County is a record of early surveying, local development, and state property law.

THE LEASING TRAIL

A Busy Abstract Is Not a Proven Lease

The Angelina County Official Public Records index 29 recorded leases in A-273, including 2009-00253430 to GOODRICH PETROLEUM COMPANY LLC and 2007-00226255 to CHESAPEAKE EXPLORATION LIMITED PARTNERSHIP. The index reports no active leases held by production for that abstract. Survey-level activity alone does not establish that a particular Duval interest was leased, that a lease expired, or that a tract is open.

“obligations of the Grantors to make payments under this Conveyance (including, without limitation, payments of proceeds of Production Payment Minerals under Paragraphs 3, 8, 9 and 11 hereof and payments under Paragraphs 13, 17 and”

A Wildcat in A-356

The Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC) ledger identifies USA 12068 (8-B) No. 1, API 42-005-30119, in A-356 as a historical permitted wildcat associated with BRITISH AMERICAN PETROLEUM CORP., P-5 093623.
