Thanks a lot for this great article. I’m researching the life and times of Charles N. Riotte, born 1814 in my hometown St. Wendel, Germany, who lived in San Antonio from abt. 1849-1860. Because of your instructions I found more than 50 deeds etc. by Mr. Riotte on Bexar’s website. Great.

Thanks a lot.

Roland Geiger, St. Wendel, Germany

Usually the folks at the Bexar County Appraisal District can help you look it up. Sometimes the deed has the actual address of the property as well. Thanks for visiting.

Looks like the clerk’s office simplified the process. Now all land records go back to 1837 on the land records link.

If that doesn’t work let me know.

It is not how it appears in your post. Any suggestions?

Apparently the clerk’s office is working on the site.
