This church and cemetery is located a mile off Highway 11 on a dirt road. After going the mile on the dirt road called Ranch Drive you come to a crossroad of Ferguson Road and Ranch Drive. The church sits on the corner and you drive down Ferguson to get to the cemetery which is located behind the church.
It's all fenced in and the gate locked. There are approximately 75 head stones with the oldest dating back to 1901. The church was built in 1895 so the cemetery was added 6 years later.
There are no other buildings close by, only farm land, with a couple farm houses visible about a mile away. A very peaceful resting place, with very little traffic.
Name of church or churchyard: Prairie Chapel
Approximate Size: Medium (51-100)
