2015 Map of Prentice

About this map

South Fork Jump River meanders through this portion of Price County, defining the drainage patterns and historical development of the region. The village of Prentice serves as the central hub, situated near the Prentice Flowage and the Prentice Airport. This 2015 survey illustrates a landscape of managed forests and wetlands, characterized by features like Cranberry Lake and its associated marshes. Further north, the settlement of Worcester and nearby Worcester Lake represent the northern rural reach of this area. Genealogical interests are well-served by the presence of Prentice Cem and Hackett Cem, providing clear spatial context for local family histories. The dense network of rural roads, including Mail Route Rd and Emery-Hackett Rd, reveals the enduring grid of agricultural and timber lands typical of northern Wisconsin.
