The thing probably hasn't been registered in so long that the tax assessor won't be willing to find anything out. However, if the property has a 911 address on a post or find the nearest 911 address and the appraisal district can give you the name of the owner of the land. Many counties have free searchable records on the internet. However, if you are in Grayson County, its not free, but the appraisal office can help you.
