Opening the Mineral Wells GIS map
In most places the county maintains the parcel layer, so for Mineral Wells the go-to is the Texas county CAD map.
Pulling up a parcel
The no-cost parcel map for this area is the Texas county CAD map, and it opens in a browser with no account. For a home near Strawn, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the viewer zooms to the match. For a home near Gordon, the record panel usually lists the owner of record, assessed acreage, the parcel number and in many cases the last transfer.
A word on accuracy
Tax maps are drawn for assessment, not surveyed, so a fence near Strawn often sits some distance off the line on screen. With a lot near Graford, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.

If you're looking near Graford, the municipality handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records.
