RE: finding owners of land
Ok sven is right about the plat map but they are expensive for what you get. try a timber management co. to run you a copy of the page you need . first you need to know were the property is such as township, range and section. if you can find a corner of the property there is usually a metal marker with it on it. once you get the plat copy and find the property the owners name will be on the property on the map. now it only gives a name. and sometimes this has changed due to sale or death. call the county assesors office for that county or who ever handles property taxes for the county. ask for a owners info. and give them the township,range and section and listed owners name. they can give you a name and address for the owner but not a phone number ( at least in arkansas). you can then either write the owner but i have found a search for a phone number and a call work better.
i have leased alot of property this way . good luck
