Any Prather researchers I just found a book on the Prathers and it had a lot of very well documented information on the forefathers of our Owen Co., Prather line I have also connected most of the children of Benjamine Higgins & Elizabeth (Kightly) Prather and have found cousins that connect to the branches that moved to Randolph Co., MO before 1880. I will be posting this new information to my web page but just wanted to update everyone on the new find. PS for the Hammon researchers there was a lot of intermarriage between the two lines especially after they moved to MO. Barbara
