02 · Where the records live

Record sources and coverage

Each source shows what it carries, whether it gives images or just an index, and the years it covers. A field we couldn't verify shows “—” rather than a guess.

03 · How to pull the records

Pulling the records

  1. 01

    Start with the county clerk — the online portal or the recording desk. Deeds, leases, and assignments are filed there by recording date.

  2. 02

    For mineral ownership, the county appraisal district carries mineral accounts; the Railroad Commission carries well and lease records.

  3. 03

    Older chains and runsheets live at the local title or abstract plant. Online aggregators mirror the index for convenience; coverage dates vary, so check each source's span.

  4. 04

    If any acreage traces to Permanent School Fund or Relinquishment Act land — or to University Lands (PUF) — the state holds that mineral lease record, not the county.

Keep the deal documents organized

Scout doesn't run title — that stays with you and your title shop. Once you've pulled the records, Scout keeps the resulting documents (leases, deeds, curative, W-9s) organized against each deal.
