What is a US Survey Link?
The US survey link (∼20.1168 cm) was based on the US survey chain. These small units allowed precise land measurements in the rectangular survey system, with township maps showing dimensions in links and chains until metric conversion.
What is an Ell?
The ell was a medieval cloth measurement ranging from 27-45 inches (69-114 cm) across Europe. The English ell measured 45 inches (1.143 m), while the Scottish ell was longer at 37 inches (94 cm). Derived from the Latin 'ulna' (arm), it represented the length from elbow to fingertip plus an extra hand span for cloth merchants.
