Thanks for the report on Texas land situation and the feds. I also thought of the Indian Reservations in Texas. This may be a dumb question, but do the Indians actually own the land in their reservations or do the feds own them? The nearest one to me is out of Livingston, Texas.
The Indian Reservations are a mixed bag. The State orginally set aside land,
managed by the feds. Changes have occurred over time. A synopsis can be read here:
