Neat FOTD. Stone set by County Surveyor T.F. Adams at the northwest corner of Overn's Addition to Brandsville Missouri. This stone was found by County Surveyor Charles Eno in 1904 and he drove a wagon iron on the south side of the stone. If the wagon iron had not been driven beside it, I would probably have never have found the stone.

Pretty neat find yesterday. The highway route plans show a "stone", at the closing corner of Sections 1 and 2. In my preliminary work, I "assumed" the stone had been removed when the road was constructed (this is a secondary lettered highway in Douglas County).

I located right-of-way markers and calculated the position of the stone using stationing and measurements listed on the plans. When we went to set a rebar at the corner position, the rod tip "clunked" on something hard and unmovable. When we dug up the "clunk" - Lo and Behold, there was the stone!

The stone had old yellow MoDOT paint on it and was approximately 6" square. This stone was also referenced in a USFS "yellow sheet".

This was a good reminder for me to "never assume".

This is a pretty typical old corner that we find in areas that were historically pine forests - A pine knot in a rock pile. This one has been previously visited by a surveyor that placed a 60D nail beside the pine knot.

A pine knot (pine lighter, fatwood) is what remains of a pine tree when it rots away. Per AI it is "a resin-soaked, highly flammable piece of wood found where a dead pine branch once connected to the trunk". It is very durable as a memorial in a pile of stones.

This one was found at a property corner near Van Buren Missouri. Shown in the picture is our crew, Parker French and Cole Matthews.

46 years ago (and as many pounds ago) I was using a transit and babbet tape. Now Iโ€™m using state of the art GPS but the fundamentals are still the same. I donโ€™t move as fast as I used to, and the hills are much steeper, but Iโ€™ve been blessed to practice a profession that has provided a sufficient living and I look forward to going to work every day.
