I am new to all of this as well and believe me, the people I know that have signed aren't too open to sharing their information. I know someone in Pulaski who signed through an attorney for 2700, but I don't know what company they signed with. I think my neighbors signed with Shell at some "signing event" last year. One neighbor with over 20 acres was approached a couple years ago with a 1500/acre offer. He held out until this year and I think he signed with Shell for 3000/acre.

I'm not sure about Lawrence County, but in Butler County you can check the courthouse records on-line to see exactly who has signed a lease with what company. All the leases are recorded under the company name and the mineral rights owner's name.

Things in Lawrence county have been a bit quite lately. I think Shell and Hilcorp have leased enough acreage to get started and are now trying to produce. I dont know why people who signed are being tight lipped, they don't have private information. They might just not pay attention to GMS any more.
