Help breaking down a Legal Description - Land Investing

[Eric Benzenhoefer]

Howdy,

I have a motivated seller with a piece of land and neither him nor the county knows where it is. I have the legal description, and so I was hoping for help understanding how to read a legal description, and then I can go from there.

Here is the format:

First line:

(2 Letter Code) (2 digit number code) (First name initials of surveyor) (Last name of surveyor)

Second Line:

P# (2 digit number code)-(1 digit number code)

Third Line:

I# (3 digit number code)/(3 digit number code)

Here is a fake description in the Texas format.

FT 87 E J BENZENHOEFER

P# 19-3
I# 123/385

Anyone know what the different parts mean?
