== Communities and locations in Humphrey == *'''Humphrey''' – The [[hamlet (place)|hamlet]] of Humphrey is near the center of the town at the junction of County Roads 18 and 51. It was formerly known as "Chapellsburg" after an early hotel owner; another possible factor in its name was the Saint Pacificus Chapel, a [[Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] chapel and cemetery that is the only church in North America named for [[Saint Pacificus]] and an early congregation point for the [[Franciscans]] that later founded [[Saint Bonaventure University]]. The chapel remains in operation to the present day, albeit in a reduced schedule since 2007 since the death of its longtime priest and cutbacks in the Catholic Church.<ref>[http://www.ellicottvilletimes.com/2013/03/21/st-pacificus-mother-church-of-the-franciscan-order-to-unveil-statue/ The Ellicottville Times and The Ellicottville Times 2019 Annual Visitors’ Guide and Directory]</ref> *'''Humphrey Center''' – A hamlet in the northern part of the town on County Road 18. The community is locally called "Tickletown"; more about Tickletown can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20060719101704/http://www.gracedepot.com/tickletown.asp here]. *'''Wrights Creek''' – A stream flowing past Humphrey and Humphrey Center.
