I have a question to ask that I have never been able to find an answer to.<br />n<br />n<center><a href='http://www.sarpysam.net/gallery/misc/stone01142006?full=1'><img width='250' height='188' border='0' hspace='5' src='http://www.sarpysam.net/gallery/albums/misc/stone01142006.thumb.jpg' alt='' /></a></center><br />n<br />nIn the foreground of the above picture on the fence line you see a rock sticking up out of the ground. You will find rocks sticking up out of the ground in various places around the ranch and they are cornerstones. Cornerstones mark the corner of sections when they surveyed this country but not all corners have them, just some. <br />n<br />nThe question I have falls with the stone in the picture though. It is a "cornerstone" but it's not in the corner of a section. It is in the middle of the section line. So, is this stone still a "cornerstone" or is there another designation for it since it falls in the middle of the section? Mid-section stone? Doesn't have quite the ring if you ask me. Any ideas out there?<br />n<br />n<b>A prudent question is one-half of wisdom. Francis Bacon</b>
