1 2.1 Metes & Bounds Descriptions Original Concept The earliest known type of land description is the "bounded" description, based on the land's relation to its natural and cultural features. Originally, adjacent landowners, trees, rocks, rivers, traveled ways, and so forth were used to describe the extent of property. Development of metes and bounds description was augmented by the evolution of surveying technology and equipment. A few hundred years ago a buyer and seller would walk the perimeter of a tract and observe the monuments or place new ones and consummate the transfer with the seller picking up a stone or twig from the land and handing it to the buyer. Later they would describe the land in a document (because people are forgetful) and walk the lines. The walking and transfer of objects from the land involved was called the action of livery of seizin. It was common in England but was not continued by the colonists of the New World. This was the bounded portion of the metes and bounds description. Originally, adjacent landowners, trees, rocks, rivers, traveled ways and so forth were used to describe the perimeter of the property. With the development of better equipment, that equipment s reduced cost, the evolution of surveying techniques, and the desire of the public to more accurately define what they were doing, the addition of the metes portion to the metes and bounds description became feasible. By the time of the break with England, the metes and bounds description was prevalent in, what was to become the United States. The system of metes and bounds is and was used to survey and describe land in the original thirteen colonies. Corners were usually artificial landmarks not of a permanent character. Tree, stumps, bends in creeks, etc., were used and they tend to disappear or change over a time span of several generations. Items of a permanent nature were seldom used and the surveyor and mapper s notes of a survey of land were often incomplete. People simply didn t have the concept in their minds of permanent as far as descriptions were concerned. They knew what they were transferring and that was as far as their minds would carry it. Also, while considerably better than earlier equipment, the surveying equipment of the time was less than accurate. Metes and bounds property descriptions must have a point of beginning, usually a physical feature such as a stake, fence post, or road intersection. In recent years, artificial permanent monuments such as metal pipes, steel pins, or concrete posts have replaced natural features. Early descriptions, with lengths shown in chains, poles, and rods, are being replaced by measurements in feet and decimals. Bearings may be to magnetic north or to true north, the latter being preferable. Current descriptions, although developed with modern surveying technology and equipment, will still often refer to the natural features found. This enables someone other than the surveyor to locate the points and trace the description on the ground. When the lines of an old survey are being relocated, or a discrepancy exists between two tracts, the following precedence (weight of importance) usually applies: 1. Monuments (natural and man-made) 4. Direction 2. Monuments control courses 5. Size (Quanity of acreage) 3. Distance 2-1

2 Monuments Monuments are classified as either natural or artificial. Naturally occurring monuments such as rivers, lakes, oceans, cliffs, trees, hills, and large boulders are permanent objects found on the land as they were placed by nature and are usually considered controlling over artificial monuments (man-made) such as iron stakes, wooden stakes, rock mounds, stones, and wooden fences. Some man-made monuments, because of the certainty of location, visibility, stability and permanence, are considered equal in rank to natural monuments. In this classification would fall sidewalks, street paving, curbs, wells, canals, concrete buildings, and concrete fences. A good monument should possess the quality of being easily visible, clearly identifiable, stable in location, permanent in character, and nondependent upon measurement for its location. An artificial monument possess the qualities of a natural monument to a lesser degree. Thus a stake placed in the ground will rust or rot with time and is less permanent than a large boulder. A stake is easier to move than a boulder and is therefore less stable. The following example shows how a call for one item takes precedence over another. A description states that a certain line goes from the road a distance of 500 feet to a stream. If the distance from the road to the stream is actually 1,000 feet, the line should go to the stream and the distance given should be ignored. (A call for a monument takes precedence over a call for a distance.) ADJOINING OWNERS Adjoining owners are the owners of property adjacent to the subject property. The adjoining owners deed controls the location of the common boundary between the two. DISTANCE Distance is the length of the line between two points. Direction is the line or course between two points. SIZE Size refers to the acreage. For example some old descriptions state: twelve acres of land in the Northwest corner of Alexander Jones property. "INTENT" is a term used to describe the probable intentions of the grantor and grantee. Surveyors, lawyers, and occasionally non-specialists write descriptions. A single error, such as an improper numerical value or a misplaced word or punctuation mark, may result in litigation for several years or more if the intentions of the grantor and grantee are not fulfilled. Every attempt should be made to interpret what the actual intent was. A correctly written metes and bounds description of a parcel of property should contain: 2-2

3 Reference point (not a corner of the property), easily located and identified, permanent, and near the property. Point of beginning, the first and last corner of property described. If the point of beginning is a prominent point, a reference point is not needed. Definite corners (clearly defined points are preferable, monuments such as iron pins). Lengths (preferably in feet and decimals) and directions (by bearings) should be given. Omitting a distance or bearing, even one to the point of beginning, can throw calculations. The date of the survey is important, especially if the bearings are computed from magnetic north. Names of adjoining property owners, to avoid claims for land in case an error in the description leaves a gap. Area, to help identify the property and specify the land conveyed. Lines, a line in a description is assumed to be the shortest horizontal distance between the point called for unless the contrary is indicated by the writings. To be absolutely correct, a straight line curves with the surface of the earth; but the curvature is so slight that it is not considered in land descriptions. A line to be identified must have a positive definition of its starting point, a direction, and length. Free lines are not terminated by an adjoiner or monument as beginning at a 2-inch iron pipe; thence N W, feet to a blazed sycamore tree, the terminus of the line is fixed by the tree; the line is not free. Many of the lines described in deeds are dependant upon monuments and are not free lines. The metes and bounds system is useful in describing irregularly shaped parcels that could not be described by other accepted methods. The main disadvantage is that it may produce inadequate location of ownership due to inaccuracies of measuring methods and reliance on natural and cultural land features of a temporary rather than permanent nature. 2-3

4 Format of a Description (In General) Just as a letter or book has various named portions, so does a description of the metes and bounds style. Since there are no formal requirements, the various authors have tended to be rather free in their use and terms of the various portions of a metes and bounds description. Generally however, the basic parts of a metes and bounds description are as follows. Caption-This is the part that is normally used to ordinate the reader to the general area of the lands to be included with in the description. The words in the caption can limit or control the words that follow. Heading-After one has gotten the reader to the proper general location, this portion gets the reader from the point of Commencement (if any) to the Points of Beginning. Remember, in a metes and bounds description, one does not have to have a Point of Commencement, but a Point of Beginning is necessary. Body This portion generally contains all the various calls around the lands to be included within the description. The word call is important because we will refer to each line in the metes and bounds description body as being a call. The calls are written in sequence as if you were walking around the perimeter of the property. Usually, but not always, the traverse will be in a clockwise direction Closing (also known as Qualification) Section-After one is returned to the Point of Beginning or the Point of Termination is reached, sometimes the author may feel that various statements are necessary to make the reader more knowledgeable of the author s intent of the extent of the land included or of the control items under which the description was prepared. Words or phrases like the size of the parcel involved, the method of treating the beginning and starting cutoff lines of a strip description, the bearing basis etc. DESCRIPTION: 2-4

The division of a scale enables the mapper to measure a distance given in a deed description onto a map. The division can be used on a variety of scales. DIVISION SCALES 10 1 = 10 1 = 100' 1 = 1,000 1 = 10, = 20 1 = = 2,000 1 = 20, = 30 1 = = 3,000 1 = 30, = 40 1 = = 4,000 1 = 40, = 50 1 = = 5,000 1 = 50, = 60 1 = = 6,000 1 = 60,000 As shown in the following figure, a division of 10 can be used on a scale of either 1 = 10 1 = 100, or 1 = That is, on a scale of 1 = 100, an inch on the map is equal to 100 feet on the ground. On a scale of 1 = 400, and inch on the map is equal to 400 on the ground.
