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

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

COURTHOUSE TRAIL

Three Instruments from 1990

Cindy Black and Michael E. Black, among others, assigned oil and gas leases to Walsh Petroleum Inc. in Inst. #199009002154. George D. Nelson, trustee, and the George D. Nelson Jr. Trust assigned leases to Walsh in Inst. #199009002335. Carla Cocke Francis granted Walsh an oil and gas lease in Inst. #199009003846. The instrument texts and legal descriptions are needed to determine whether these interests overlap.

“Reserving unto Walsh Petroleum Inc., its successors and assigns, the oil, gas, and other mineral interests described in the Hockley County Official Public Records.”

Primary Surveys & Tracts Indexed:

  • Hockley County Survey Abstracts & Subdivided Rural Tracts (44 Recorded Instruments)

PRODUCTION LEDGER

A Levelland Field Reference

The RRC ledger lists cumulative production of 2,251,900 BBL of oil and 501,387 MCF of gas for the Hockley County Levelland "C" lease. CTOC Energy, LLC is listed as current operator under P-5 number 104281. The production record identifies a research lead; it does not establish that Walsh retains an interest in the lease or its underlying minerals.

“Recorded in the Official Public Records of Hockley County, TX.”
