Sink railroad track or ibeam on the property line as close to road as you plant.
Think hard about how much time you want to spend aggravating yourself with any of this. Give it a rest - coons can take out an acre easily - what's down here a couple 100 sqft? Property boundries can be one of the more emotional problems to deal with. Level your head and let it ride for a bit, you have till next spring to get things in order.
I've seen most of the above scenes unfold - beams planted, posts put up, gates, fence lines "cleared a little too far" from all sides of the fence, people get a little testy about property boundries, and don't want anything to get started. A couple very simple "huge" beams in the way can make people back way off, or maybe not, pick your battles. Standing your ground doesn't equate to being an arse about it, it's just simply standing your ground. The butts of the world don't care, most farmers do, decades from now your still going to be looking at the guy, so you've got the odds and time on your side. Nothing stays the same forever. On the other hand, a survey helps. The stuff they had to mark boundries years ago pale to gps within inches now. Fence lines aren't what they used to be. They could be off 20ft, I've seen that too, then what. At that point maybe it's best to keep quiet about it all.
