Map Quest does not recognize Millard's Prairie but I did find this info: The first United Brethren Church (U.B.C.), was organized in Wisconsin in 1872 near Monroe and soon a second church was started in Elroy. Later, in 1873, another church was founded at Millards Prairie, Wisconsin. A seminary was established in Elroy and opened for operation in 1874. From its inception the church placed an emphasis on missionary activities. The church had its roots in pietism and promoted the role of the laity within its organization. These beliefs influenced the doctrinal dogma of the church. I have also seen it referred to as in "rural Elroy". Evidently Millards Prairie is a "place" but MapQuest doesn't know where it is. Thanks!
