Did I miss something earlier about Prague?? Perhaps it was the wrong surname connection.. My Humphrey line lived in Forsyth, Missouri before moving to Prague, Oklahoma in the early 1900s (at least by the time my Grandfather Chester was born in 1908). Would anyone be able to let me know if the Humphrey family is mentioned in the Prague History Book?
