Abandoned mine records
Where the workings are, and the office that holds the mine maps.
From the old mine records
The mine records hold 108 named mine sites inside the county, 54 of them worked out or abandoned; the old survey maps add 132 holes drawn inside the county, 0 of them shafts or tunnels. The mineral the records name is construction sand and gravel.
A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area.
Disclaimer: The mine information here is for general information only. Old mine records can be incomplete, outdated or wrong, and finding nothing here does not mean there is nothing there. Check with the mine map office named here before you rely on it, and have a qualified engineer look at any ground you are worried about. PublicRecordCenter.com assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors, omissions, or consequences arising from the use of this information.
Straight answers
Open only the answer you need.
Booking photos are kept by the agency that made the arrest, such as the Colorado County Sheriff or a city police department in Colorado County. Ask that agency for its record. Texas Business and Commerce Code chapter 109 covers businesses that publish criminal record information, arrest photographs included, taken from public records or bought from DPS and that charge $150 or more to remove it or any fee to correct it; they must keep it complete and accurate and may not publish records they know are expunged or under an order of nondisclosure.
The Texas criminal history record comes from the Texas Department of Public Safety, Crime Records. Run an online name based search of deferred adjudication and conviction records through the DPS Criminal History Conviction Name Search, or have fingerprints taken by appointment at a DPS FAST location. Fee: $10.00 for a name based check done offline through DPS; $15.00 for a fingerprint based check, plus $10 for fingerprinting at a FAST location.
Search the Texas Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Registry, or every state at once on the National Sex Offender Public Website run by the U.S. Department of Justice.
