Couple of items. Has been a long time since I have read legal descriptions in land for sale ads. Usually the measurement is from the center of the road. Ad would read "southwest quarter of section 23 containing 160 acres more or less". The "more or less" was to allow for the amount actually owned by the township, county, or state for road right of way, but generally referred to as a quarter section. Normally there is a marker of some type at the corner where your land abuts your neighbor. Might be a concrete post, large rock with a steel or brass plate attached, or a steel post. Steel posts sometimes get buried, need a metal detector to find. Follow the fence on the line with your side neighbor. Should be able to notice the corner by the difference in materials or construction methods. Ask the neighbor. He/she might know the actual line. Invite him over for fresh coffee & donuts. Could be his trees but he has no use for firewood & give you the go ahead, keep the wood for the work of cleaning up. Good boundary line fences make good neighbors. If the fence is gone, an invitation to coffee works wonders too. HTH Willie
