Original grantee

International-Great Northern Railroad Company

State of TexasResearched grantee

The International and Great Northern Railroad Company name belongs to one of the major post-Civil War railroad systems in Texas. Its lines connected important East Texas, Central Texas, and Gulf routes, and the company inherited or consolidated earlier railroad projects whose land records were tied to state support for internal improvements. A survey under this name is not a household headright; it is a corporate infrastructure patent, with the railroad's land certificate and GLO file becoming the root label for later county title, timber, surface, and mineral records.
