1. Minor problem in the grand scheme of things, but I can't seem to find my front yard ....
More accurately, my neighbor and I have pleasantly and peacefully lived next to each other for 24 years, and we can't figure out where her yard ends and mine begins so we can replace the ancient fence on the back of our lots. She says the old fence behind her backyard was in the wrong spot, and wants to check.
The deed says"
"Beginning at the iron pin on the easterly side of SH 470 feet northerly, as measured along the easterly side of SH, from the intersection of the easterly side of SH with the northerly side of GHT, said point of beginning also being the at the line dividing lots 25 and 26.
But I can't find any pin. Am I starting at the wrong point down the street? It seems clear he is not using the street centerline, but is the usual practice lines "A" intersection at the grass and curb, or lines "B" intersection further out. I don't think it is on the corner "radius" at point "C".
2. There are two small hills on the easterly side of street SH. Am I accurate enough measuring "up and down" the hills, or try to get a correction so I am measuring an "ideal flat plane" as our lots are shown in the county plot plan?
