I have a question about a survey we had done. The deed states acreage and a certain boundary but use ditches and trees as corners. Measured with rods and chains but is flat ground. The surveyor went back to property lines before a national landmark came thru. Used section corner etc… as a corner. We gained some softwood timber and changed one section. Moved the north line south 30 ft or so but added 150 ft on southern line but we lost 30 ft on west line. Acreage is approximately the same for that portion.

Surveyor said he was 99% the previous survey was wrong. It was surveyed by landowner (at the time) to the west 50 plus years ago.

We cross 4 other landowners and came with an appurtenant easement that was on our original deed. Been some discussion if that carried over to us. Lawyer says it does.

I find it interesting that several different surveys can be done and all have different outcomes yet still be good supposedly.
