    3. Where I found Prospect Church is about 5-6 miles due east of Juno. The Black bottom creek mentioned flows into the northwest branch of Beech Lake.

    3. Well the church/school that was there, won't be there anymore if it burnt down in 1925.. so my going out there to look would not be worthwhile.. and the cemetery is abandoned... so there would be nothing there to take pictures of anyway..
