Narrative:

I departed hyi at approximately XA30 for a flight to ZZZ approximately 100 NM. I conducted a personal briefing using the wsi system at hyi. In addition I made 5 phone calls that day to licensed pilots located at ZZZ in order to get a real time WX condition report and prognosis. I checked the tfr's online for the area; there were none applicable for my area. I flew straight course to ZZZ1 to check for possible damage to my hangar at that airport and then to ZZZ where I overflew the runway to check the runway condition; and landed. After landing I was advised by some pilots that another pilot had just called to get a WX and condition report and stated that there was a tfr in effect for our area. I called flight service to find out the hours of effectivity hours of the possible tfr; and the briefer told me that the tfr in question was not listed under texas; but that it was listed under us houston center section. Had the tfr been listed under texas tfr's; I would have seen and complied with it; but who would have thought to look under us section to conduct a 100 NM flight over farm land unaffected by the storm.
