[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1577464, member: 5381"] A lot of these old surveys are done with a chain and a pin. I know, I did some of them. Modern ones with GPS may come up significantly different. Also some surveyors may interpret the boundaries different then others. Sounds stupid but surveys that go to the center of a creek are sometimes way out of whack because of creek changes or like on my place, the corps of engineers decided that straightening the creek would be a good idea. Some places haven't been surveyed in a hundred years so the surveyor takes what he thinks is right and sets new pins. Get a survey done and as mentioned, let your neighbor know any problems before you start. You may want to put it in writing if their is a big difference between old and new. [/QUOTE]
