About this map

Prairie Home serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in eastern Cooper County, where a network of rural roads connects several small settlements and family burial grounds. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Cave Creek and Splice Creek in the north, while Howard Creek and Schaaf Creek wind through the southern sections. This 2011 survey reflects the enduring rural character of the region, anchored by established hamlets like Pleasant Grove and Cedron.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of numerous smaller cemeteries, including Providence Cemetery, Robison Cemetery, and Garman Cemetery. To the southwest, the Prairie Home Wildlife Area preserves a portion of the landscape, while the local road names like Hazel Dell School Rd and Providence School Dr hint at the historical locations of the community's early educational centers.
