Do you know of Howard's Prairie ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Howard's Prairie. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Howard's Prairie.<1>

Our sources for Howard's Prairie (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Howard's Prairie other than they indicate that Howard's Prairie would be found somewhere in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin.
