boundaries


My stepfather recently visited a grandmother who
lives in this area. It's either here or in Marion
County. She lives on a property known as Snider Hill.
She told my stepdad that she had no idea where the
boundary is between her land and land that her husband
donated to a church which then turned it into a cemetery,
She hasn't a clue where she put the deed, and we were
wondering if this was on record somewhere. Any information
would be nice. Thanks!
