Same thing happened to me. I bought my property out of foreclosure and the bank had it surveyed before I even walked it. One corner stake was by a creek with a little wooden bridge over it that indicated the bridge was on the neighbor's property. After buying the land and clearing the area of brush, etc. I was able to see some other markers and the iron rod by the creek appeared to be way off and the bridge was actually on my property by about 35 ft. I used my transit to determine the actual corner and put up some posts and started to fence in the boundary. Neighbor lady came out hollering. She pointed to the iron rod and stake with flag waving in the wind. I told her in no uncertain terms that "someone" must have moved the stake. I kept building the fence. She kept hollering. I then called the surveyor who came out and "reset" the iron rod to within an inch or 2 from where I had calculated the corner to be. He told me that "yup, 'somebody' moved it". Cost me $200 but money well spent. We took pictures and another neighbor told me later that the woman had admitted to him that she had moved the stake. I've got about 150' more fence to put up and I'll have a clear boundary indicator between our properties. I've also planted about 300 Christmas tree along that line as a "visual" barrier over time. She's actually mellowed since the first encounter, so hopefully we can live in peace. As the old saying goes "good fences make good neighbors".

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
