The Howard County Official Public Records index mineral deeds into Marland Employees Royalty Co from D C Smith at Vol. 58, Pg. 522, Doc #1; Marland Oil Co of Texas at Vol. 58, Pg. 533, Doc #1; Emil Hurja at Vol. 59, Pg. 175; J B Harding, R A Harding et al. at Vol. 59, Pg. 207, Doc #1; J C Mc Kinnon and S C Mc Kinnon at Vol. 59, Pg. 206, Doc #1; and R C Sanderson at Vol. 59, Pg. 286, Doc #1. Several entries direct the examiner to multiple properties in the underlying instrument. The archival abstract index also identifies A-1219, A-1354, A-1551, A-1554, A-372, A-475, A-481 and A-484. A lease to OGX Resources LLC is indexed at Vol. 1033, Pg. 749 for A-1219 and A-1554. These index references do not establish that every abstract or lease covers a company-owned interest. The reported absence of a blanket corporate exit deed does not establish continuing ownership; examine each conveyance, reservation, lease and successor instrument against the affected acreage.

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

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

ARCHIVAL TITLE

A 1926 Mineral Deed

A mineral deed dated July 26, 1926, records Marland Oil Co of Texas as grantor and Marland Employees Royalty Co as grantee for the north half of Section 48, Block 33, Township 1S. It appears in the Howard County Official Public Records at Vol. 58, Pg. 533, Doc #1. The deed's terms and the subsequent chain require examination before any present ownership can be determined.

PRODUCTION LEDGER

The Snyder Connection

The Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC) ledger associates API 42-227-35461 with the Snyder, Susie B. lease in A-1219 and lists Grayrock Energy II, LLC, P-5 101718, as current operator. The lease entry reports cumulative production of 1,303,921 BBL of oil and 23,367 MCF of gas. The same totals appear alongside multiple wells, so they should not be added together or treated as proof of production attributable to a Marland interest.
