| Section corners were created when the government originally surveyed Indiana into "mile square" parcels. Section corners refer to the four (4) corners of the "mile square" parcel. The intermediate half-mile corners are referred to as "quarter corners" because they divide the section into quarters. These corners are usually found near the centerline of roads. Section corners are marked by monuments set under the direction of a licensed surveyor. |
