Thank you for all your comments. It has been a great discussion. I probably should not have used the word befuddled. This surveyor is the only one we could find that would take the job. Our side is in no hurry. The others want to sell but I don't think they are in a hurry either.
I do not question his abilities, I would just like to help him locate the original points. I have already proposed we do a lot line adjustment if necessary. If we have been using their land for the last sixty years, we are willing and able to pay for it.
He has been searching for a point on a recent survey. It is about 1/2 mile away so I have somewhat dismissed it. I guess that is where he proposes to tie in. I guess with modern survey methods it is not a problem.
I am trying to handle this from a distance. We have a lot of old deeds and maps but I can't access them right now. My sister's husband just passed away so I am not going to ask her to look for that stuff right now. Maybe it is just as well that it takes a while. The surveyor is really good with email so that is a good thing. I will report back with with the next exciting chapter.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
