2011 Map of Prescott East

About this map

Providence Cemetery, Washington Hill Cemetery, and Buchanan Cemetery are situated among the creek-fed lowlands of Nevada County, documenting the local family heritage and rural settlement patterns of the early twenty-first century. This landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the Little Missouri River and Terre Rouge Creek dictate the contours of the land. The eastern edge of Prescott is visible near Kizer Field, giving way to the smaller communities of Boughton and Redland. Infrastructure such as the Heathlake Reservoir, held by the Heathlake Dam, suggests a focus on local water management and recreation within the watershed of Sewer Creek and Cox Creek. The map provides a detailed record of the rural road network, including the specifically named Plantation Rd and Beirne Bottom Rd, which reflect the historic agricultural uses of the river bottomlands.
