included in a unit or not included in a unit, how do you know for sure?

I am confused to the many differing answers I have received about being in a unit. I was told in the early process of a well pad being placed near me I was included. I am being approached weekly by landmen wanting to repurchase my mineral rights. I do not own a huge amount of acreage, a little over 17 ac., I just need the facts, recently told by a landman I should sell to him because I am 600 yards short of the unit.  I just need to know for sure. Is there a way I can find this out?  I have made calls to the person whom we signed our chesapeake contract, but does not return, any info would be appreciated

I found out today that the plat maps found on the ODNR simply show who is in a drilling unit. I don't believe that has anything to do with who would be paid royalties. I believe royalties are paid on recorded production units. You would have to know how many acres were included in the total production unit, who all is included in the production unit and then how many acres of your property are in that production unit. I'm not sure how to get that information? Does anyone know if production unit maps are recorded somewhere? Or does the ONDR have this information?
Or do you need to contact the well owner such as Gulfport Energy to get this info?
