The only evidence found at the northwest corner of a section was a concrete monument set by a private surveyor in 1948. Research revealed a recorded plat with a notation that the monument was set immediately adjacent to a stone determined to be original corner monument. Which of the following designations currently describes the northwest corner?
  1. Original corner
  2. Found corner
  3. Lost corner
  4. Obliterated corner
Explanation
Answer: D - The northwest corner is currently designated as an obliterated corner. An obliterated corner is one in which the visible evidence of the original monument has disappeared, but the original location can be established beyond reasonable doubt from other physical evidence and/or testimony. A lost corner is defined as a point on a survey whose position cannot be determined from traces of the original marks or acceptable evidence or testimony.
