land dispute

What is the name of your state? Mississippi



my father bought several hundred acres of land in 1994.
we have the deed and surverys showing that the land is my fathers. the problem is in 1980 someone built ponds on over half of the land. my father bought the land not knowing this.
this person is now telling my father that the land is now his since these ponds have been on the land for over 10 years.
i need to know if this is true or not ?
