I need more information. Do you have a deed? Was it recorded?

Assuming there was a lien on the entire 100 acre parcel, and you obtained 2 acres from those 100 acres without doing anything to release the lien as the the 2 acres you obtained, you might have a problem. You might be able to negotiate a release with the lien holder. You might have some traction if this property is your homestead. In any case, you need to contact an attorney immediately.
