    The land grant was from a 3-4th uncle, Gregoria Garcia. From the papers I have, it looks like it sold it shortly after getting the grant. It was in Hardin Co. I have other papers over the years where he sold parts of it. Several family members lived on the land in the 50's. Sun Oil came in & the courts ruled in their favor....no money vs oil company!!

    A book on lost land grants would be an interesting read. I've never heard of one tho.
