I struck Gold!! I have been researching my roots of the Prokosch family for quite some numbers of years, not very steadily, but from time to time. The Prokosch family came from Bohemia, in the 1860's, to the New Ulm, MN farming communities around that general area. I have found the first member of my family, and the oldest descendant member of our family, which I spent a few hours with, quite an enjoyable period, listening to stories, and visiting about the family. I found the farm they first settled on, and the farm my Knott family settled on, quite close by. There are many families that married into the Prokosch family, and I have many of those family names also. New Ulm is a beautiful and very clean town of about 13,500 people. There are many small farm villages around the town. We walked several cemeteries, and found many families of the same name. It certainly lives up to its reputation of being one of the largest immigrant settlements for Germans and Bohemians in the U.S. at that time. Our experience was amazing, and so successful, as we found the Knott family that moved south into northern Iowa, a small village called St. Joseph, currently with about 15 families, and a beautiful Catholic cemetery and church, that goes back to the mid 1860's. If I can help anyone, let me know as much as you know, as far back as you know, so I can connect you to the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd generation of the family in the New Ulm area. Everyone should have so much fun and good luck with their geneology.
