I used to work for a company that did mortgage work. The most interesting was title search.
Whenever the property was undeveloped farmland, it typically had been in the family for generations. The last legal description may have been three pages, hand-written a hundred years ago, and made reference to stone walls and oak trees as boundaries.
Bonus points if it was subdivided among the children in Grandpa's will 40 years ago and never recorded.
