Public ground such as Middle Fork Bottoms State Park appears as large unbroken blocks, and the private parcels around it draw hunters and recreation buyers.
Property lines in Madison County, Tennessee
On rural tracts near Claybrook, the parcel lines can drift from the fences on the ground, sometimes by more than a few feet. Rural tracts near Jackson follow metes-and-bounds calls, so their shapes on the map track creeks, roads and old fences. If a neighbor's fence near Jackson and the map disagree, neither one is proof. A survey is.

For a buyer eyeing woods outside Jackson, that means asking whether the timber has been sold or harvested recently.
