Nancy I feel for you but this is an issue caused by procrastination. The old reason being the agreement that you had with a good neighbor that you did not want to affect with a line change. Then the new owner built a new fence and you did not make him put it on the property line. The old agreement MAY still hold to a legal challenge but it very well may not.
I have been on both sides of this issue. I have become a firm believer in the old saying: Good line fences make good neighbors. I have a line fence on every thing I own. Some of it is not farmed but I want the line marked and not argued about. Life is too short for the headache.
I have one case that is similar to your issue. I just quick claimed the small 30 foot x 15 feet over to the neighbor. I did not need it, had never used it and it made his day. I have a good neighbor for the future.
The question I think you really need to ask your self is is: Does the ground have enough value for you to make an issue out of it????? You have owned the ground now for 20 plus year. You have never used it. Will you really miss it if you don't own it any longer???
I have softened on this issue as I have gotten older. The old surveys where made with difficult equipment and different skill levels of operators. So there are mistakes on many deeds. We now have better technology that makes getting land measured much more accurate. So we are in a transition period. Hopefully those future owners will have fewer problems.
