No more accurate statement has ever been made.
It's not from a survey. I am collaborating with a colleague who is writing a book. I am the survey consultant.
Some other words that we came upon, and were able to translate were Hackmatack, Popple, and Chaise House.
In order, they are (in modern language) Tamarack or Lodge Pole pine, Poplar tree, and Carriage House. We took a liberty on the last one. Chaise is chair in French.
Have you read Norman Van Valkenburgh's books? He was a surveyor and turned out two or three novels and some history of the Catskill area of New York.

Someone sent two to me and I passed them on to someone on the forum. They may have gone to Belgium after that.
If anyone has them, I'd like to be reminded of where the car went off the road, as I think it may have been near the land someone was asking about on this forum a couple-three years ago.
Cool. I have heard about those books. Perhaps it was on this forum.
I have them. Haven't looked through them again since I read them upon receipt. Interesting stories, though. May have to dust them off and search for the part with a car going off the road.
Hemlock & stones?
