Take a look at this website. It's kind of boring but it has some cheap line drawings of how boundary lines are marked. You've heard of "blazing a trail"? Same deal with boundary lines. They marked the outer edges of your property when you owned hundreds or thousands of acres like around the 1800s.
If I find a better website I'll post it here for you.
