A word on accuracy

On ground around Jones Creek, city or town hall handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, while the county keeps the tax map. Acreage past the city limits out by Angleton often falls under county rules rather than the town's.

Deeds, plats and who keeps them
For land near Lake Jackson, the map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements for parcels in the county are filed with the County Clerk. Inherited tracts near Angleton can go back through many deeds, and a title company earns its fee on a real sale.
