Oh…I know this one…at least one…6 pecks would be 1.5 Bushel. Me oystering days helped w that one!And six chains!
We went to the county Hall of records when we bought our farm and looked at all the old property deeds. And they literally used to use a chain as a unit of measurement.
The old property deeds from about the 1920s and earlier were all handwritten.
Now… now, how many bushels are in 16 chains, 2 drams and 6 pecks?
