Cross-referencing Chapman Oil Co across Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC) Form P-5 operator filings, 6-digit oil and gas lease production ledgers, successor operator transfers, API well completions, and Leon County Clerk recorded oil and gas leases.
The recorded leases establish indexed transactions into Chapman Oil Co, while the two Peoples releases and the stipulation of interest involving Bayou Resources Inc and Chapman Oil Co at Vol. 555, Page 165 (Doc #166549) require review of their full text and legal descriptions. The archival abstract index reports 33 conveyances and assignments involving retained subsurface interests and no blanket corporate exit deed. That index characterization alone does not establish the present ownership, acreage, nature, or extent of any retained interest. No survey abstract numbers or Leon County offset wells are identified in the records presented, and no connection is established between the out-of-county RRC entries and a particular Leon County tract.
Cumulative oil and gas production (1993-Present RRC ledger), 12-month HBP production status, and the current or last successor operator of record for leases drilled or held by Chapman Oil Co. Full sovereignty-to-present abstract runsheets and leasehold assignments are custom quoted on demand.

To protect landowner privacy and chain-of-title integrity, individual Net Revenue Interest (NRI) decimals, living heirship trees, unredacted lease expiration schedules, and complete sovereignty-to-present abstract runsheets are withheld from public display and quoted on demand based on page volume, instrument count, and unit value.
Every old subdivision map and deed book in Leon County is a record of early surveying, local development, and state property law.
The Leon County Official Public Records index two releases of oil and gas leases from Chapman Oil Co and partner Roger C. Chapman to Thomas E. Peoples and Wanda C. Peoples: Vol. 534, Page 530 (Doc #158731) and Vol. 534, Page 531 (Doc #158732). Their consecutive pages invite a tract-by-tract comparison of the released interests and the leases they identify.
“Reserving unto Chapman Oil Co, its successors and assigns, the oil, gas, and other mineral interests described in the Leon County Official Public Records.”
Primary Surveys & Tracts Indexed:
The Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC) ledger lists CHAPMAN OIL COMPANY under Form P-5 number 144751 with an inactive or delinquent status. It also lists Yates Field Unit in Pecos County and SACROC Unit in Scurry County, currently operated by Kinder Morgan Production Co LLC. Those out-of-county entries do not establish production or a retained interest under a Leon County tract.
“Recorded in the Official Public Records of Leon County, TX.”
Recorded Reservation & Deed Clauses Documented:
Submit the Instrument Book and Page, Survey, or Parcel Number for Chain-of-Title and Corporate Records Verification.
This broadsheet is maintained as an Independent Historical Surveyor Atlas, Plat Archive & Chain-of-Title Research Index preserving the surveying, agricultural, mineral, and corporate history of Chapman Oil Co (TX Ref: TX Corporate Grantor / County Clerk Archive) in Leon County.
Whether you are a local historian, a landowner researching the history of your tract or subdivision, a surveyor examining historical map books, or a landman, division order analyst, or title examiner with a question regarding historical corporate records, leases, or deeds, use the form here to reach the archive desk.
