Prairie Lake Cemetery is located in Section 11 of Prairie Lake Township in Barron Co. This cemetery is divided into the western Section 1 and eastern Section 2. The rows and / or family plots have been related from South to North. Surnames with a question mark (?) and those in parenthesis (SMITH) mean that there was no surname found on the stone. Where the maiden name of a woman was included on the stone, it is listed with her given name and is capitalized. Happy hunting!
