This is a more often occurring find during research.
Two boundary calls,
one the original to separate the property from the parent tract, varas were used last in the early 1960s
the other a 2010 resurvey for new construction.
This amounts to about a foot different along the longest boundary of the property.
One question that arises is at what point of the fence is the possession, the pipe or the outer edge of the concrete that holds the pipe in place?
Another is why not hold the original distance?
The bearings were 00å¡25'å± different from compass and Solar Observation (local lingo for sunshot). :sun:
Other boundaries are as much as 01å¡12' different.
I am going to shovel down and see if the called pipe is there and possibly set new monuments.
Is it a pincushion when one of them is a new fence corner?
Reading the two descriptions, it sounds like the pipe is the corner. Distance and direction fall further down the list in order of importance of conflicting elements. If you find that pipe, you've got it. If not, I would back up to the next two corners that were used to set that pipe. I personally would not set new monuments unless I was thoroughly convinced the original had been destroyed.
