Pulling up a parcel
Property in and around Fort McDermitt can be looked up on the County Parcels in Nevada layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer, free to use and open without a login.

Closer to Fort McDermitt, the record panel normally shows the owner of record, assessed acreage, the parcel number and sometimes recent sales.
Deeds, plats and who keeps them
For anything that matters, get the recorded deed through the County Recorder; the parcel map near Fort McDermitt only summarizes it. In and around Fort McDermitt, use the document number from the tax record to skip a name search.
