i live on a twp road in the 1940s they changed the way the road went, owner protested it in  court  so they took the full 15ft on each side from the center, so they took 30ft of the hay feild over 200ft long, the neighbor had the right to  make them cut or trim our road trees for his truck traffic 20 years ago

Hello,

Deed states owner of a property next to mine, was allowed to use a foot path next to the onion patch back in 1902 as stated in 1902. Can he now have it surveyed in to his title and change it to a 14 right-of-way. Alhough there is no referance in my title, just his. Strange!

if its in your deed yes we have a dead that lets us, use the neighbors land for  access to harvest crops only , that was added in the 1900s,  its still binding, the county court and the town ships do the roads, they took over 200ft 30ft wide  hay field for 1 home in the 1940s for the neighbor  that had a road to it,  the township took the max over the owners protest

willam i really dont know how that works, but sounds like its  access added in the deed granted by the old owners of the land , todays courts  could see a foot path access now could mean  the width  of car ,for right of access, if he was land locked he could use that at any time for access

The property is land locked, but he owns the 42 acres  that is attached to it, and has access to it from the road on next to that property. The ten acres is only 100 yards from the road, which he can acess through his 42 acres that can can walk to. Seems to me he is just being a pain in my wallet.

The landman stopped by today and showed me the piece of land they need to use for widening the road.  In the unlikely event that it may affect two young walnut trees I have, they will transplant or replace the trees.  Plus, they need to remove a few pine trees (that are half-dead already) and some brush from the hillside, and will pay two thousand dollars for that.  I'm happy........
