Gonzales Texas COURTHOUSE RECORDS Search Hints

NOTE: This database has been offered since July 2011 with free searches. In November 2014, we began offering an alternative database called the "Gonzales, TX TITLE PLANT" which provides data that goes back farther and allows searches by property.

Click here to view the differences between this database and
the "Gonzales, TX TITLE PLANT" database.

1. ALL data entered on the search criteria screen must match for a document to be found.

2. Grantor and Grantee names are entered in the form shown by the example: "SMITH JOHN" (no punctuation).

3. To find Grantor or Grantee names where you are not sure if name is first or middle name, search for "SMITH%JOHN". This will find "SMITH JOHN" and "SMITH ROBERT JOHN". Sometimes names are entered on the same line like 'PATTERSON WOODROW SR & ELSIE M". In this case, a search for "PATTERSON%ELSIE" will find this document.

4. Dates are entered in the form mm/dd/yyyy.

5. The instrument number is a 6-digit, sequentially assigned number. For example, the first document filed in 1980 is 80-000001 and the first document filed in 2009 is 238727.

6. Currently we are missing Volumes 1026 forward. We will provide these as soon as possible.
