Caddo Resources

Does anyone know the differences between Caddo Resources LLC, Caddo Resources GP, Caddo Resources LP and Caddo Resources Inc? I know that Richard McFarland was President of one and Rex Corey Jr is President of several others. Is there a connection between all of them? Caddo Resources LP (Rex Corey Jr) sold Goodrich Petrolem land for 32 million dollars. Has anyone had any dealings with either Richard McFarland or Rex Corey Jr?

Thank you!
Cindy

property owner's son

Hello,

I am new to the sight and the gas industry. I am trying to find out some information to assist my 82 year old mom. She gets her royalty checks that shows the money is for gas drawn from the James Lime Formation. How or does it relate to the Haynesville Shale? How big is the James Lime formation? Her property is located near the center of and most northern San Augustine county.
Thanks for your information,
Brodie Riner, Jr.
