Map of Cemetery
There are two interactive maps available online. The better one (because it gives more information) is a link off the Prairie Home Cemetery website.

The other site is located as a link from the city website. This site interment dates, but not birth and death dates. From this site you can get the funeral home information and any special notes that may have been made about the burial. The link is here at the bottom of the page:Prairie Home Cemetery City Link.
