Berry, George Original Cursive Land Grant & Field Notes (Rusk County, Abstract A-143)

Archival 19th-century handwritten cursive land grant patent and surveyor field notes from the Texas General Land Office for the Berry, George Survey (Abstract A-143, Rusk Bounty) in Rusk County, Texas, forming the sovereign root of title for tracts conveyed by Blumberg Edward Austin Trust.

Chronicle of Rusk County

Land, Water, Surveys & the Story of Blumberg Edward Austin Trust

Across Rusk County, the archival abstract index places Blumberg Edward Austin Trust within a landscape of mineral reservations, recorded leases, and producing oil and gas properties. The George Berry Survey, A-143, offers a particularly visible intersection: the Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC) ledger identifies producing wells there, while the Rusk County Official Public Records index leases in the same abstract. A shared survey designation alone does not establish that the trust owns an interest in any well, lease, or unit.

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

The Rusk County Official Public Records describe a parent acquisition series vesting tract, mineral, and leasehold estates in Blumberg Edward Austin Trust, together with a three-instrument out-conveyance and subsurface reservation schedule. The schedule reports no blanket corporate exit deeds, but the individual conveyances and reservation language require examination before retained interests can be determined. The two identified probate entries are Vol. 4138, Page 763, Doc #273104, and Vol. 4138, Page 767, Doc #273105. Their relationship to trust property and successor authority remains to be established from the instruments and governing trust documents. The active CAD roll reports $9,140 appraised value and $284.56 per month in revenue; those figures do not establish net mineral acreage, title ownership, or future income.

PRODUCTION LEDGER

One Unit, Four Well Entries

The RRC ledger lists API wells 42-401-31066, 42-401-31060, 42-401-30942, and 42-401-30812 in A-143 under the OVERTON, NE (PETTIT -A-) UNIT and RRC lease ID 06-12422. Each entry repeats cumulative production of 333,196 BBL of oil and 26,704 MCF of gas. Those repeated figures should not be added together. BASA RESOURCES, INC., P-5 053974, is identified as current operator, with an October 2026 last production cycle.
