Waskom City Property Records in Texas

Waskom is a small East Texas city in Harrison County on the Louisiana border, east of Marshall. Property records are maintained by the county rather than the city. Deeds, mineral conveyances, liens and plats are recorded with the Harrison County Clerk. The Harrison Central Appraisal District publishes ownership, acreage, improvements and tax exemptions for each account. The Harrison County Tax Assessor-Collector issues bills, and city parcels also owe the City of Waskom and the Waskom Independent School District. Because the Haynesville and Cotton Valley formations have produced gas here, many titles include severed mineral interests; the Railroad Commission of Texas keeps well records. Title suits are heard in the Harrison County District Courts.
