My father lived in and died in Oregon back in 1994, there was a will and it got probated in Oregon . At the time of the will we only knew of one section that’s in Hughes Country . I just recently discovered that there’s more in Seminole County . What papers do I need to file in order to have what was found in Seminole County ? Also I live in Oregon do I have to take a trip to file in person ?
Sheryl, I’m sorry for the loss of your father. 
It sounds like you will probably need to have your father’s will probated in both Hughes and Seminole counties, but I’ll let someone better qualified than myself speak to that.
However, I do know for a fact that you don’t have to travel to Oklahoma to file in person. My mother (who owned mineral rights in Oklahoma) lived and passed away in Indiana, and I just had her will successfully probated in Oklahoma via a law firm in Oklahoma City.
BTW, welcome to the forum! This is a great place to find help.
You will need to have a probate done. Now, if a probate was already done, then an affidavit reflecting what happened to the property will need to be recorded in Seminole County. If you have to have a probate done, only one is necessary. either in the District Court of Seminole county or the District court of Hughes county, but not both.
