Office of the County Clerk
If you own land in America, you have to file your deed or mineral grant or oil & gas lease or assignment or final account or quit claim deed or w/e down at the County Clerk\’s Office. (Not to be confused with the Court Clerk\’s Office).
When you file your instrument, they take a photocopy of it and record it in whatever Volume, at whatever Page, and then they index it against the appropriate lands. The books pictured are those volumes, and they contain anywhere from 300-900 pages each. This particular county has OVER FIVE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAAND volumes on the shelves.
In order to find out who currently owns a certain tract of land, at least in Oklahoma, you have to go way back in the day to inception. That\’s when the US government marched a bunch of injun peoples down here and parceled out the land in 160 acre tracts to them. Then you just follow the chain of title to the present day.
I know how to do this, so I use a legal pad and a pencil, but there are people in there making $200/day simply taking pictures of the documents and giving them to people like myself who can figure out the ownership of the surface and minerals and leasehold.
If you have no job and you own a good digital camera, go hang out at your local county courthouse and look for people who are doing this and tell them that natedog said to give you a job.

I\’m impressed by the utter mish-mash of borders, especially in the central region, and how anyone could possibly keep it all straight.
