These are not lat long. These are direction and distance.

You probably should hire a surveyor.

What nobody has said yet is that

a) you are undoubtedly looking for a corner monument,

b) the latitude and longitude can't be determined to an accuracy of inches by any means other than first finding that monument or related monuments and then measuring with professional grade GPS (or GNSS).

c) if you had that precise and accurate set of coordinates, you couldn't re-locate the point accurately without the professional equipment.

d) if the monument is an iron rod as is often the case, a surveyor would use a magnetic locator to find it. A treasure hunter metal detector might or might not work. Digging several inches is often required.

e) if you can find monuments at the corners northeast and northwestwest, your best hope would be to tape the distances to the one you are looking for.?ÿ
