I have a question for you . How many feet are there in a 'chain'? People survey land use the term chains and I need this info to read land survey maps, Thanks in advance.
A chain is 66 feet (or 22 yards or 100 links), (which in metric is 20.1168 meters). There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile.
What are the maps you are looking at maps of? The year 1835? LOL!
