Foreword

" Roscoe's settlers are long gone and few remain who were here before 1900. We can only imagine the past based on stories and letters handed down through the years, or by poring over faded photographs and fragile glass negatives stored in dusty attics and musty cellars. THE STORY OF ROSCOE written by Florence Shugars in 1987 gave us knowledge of the past and it is hoped that these photos will provide further insight and a clearer picture of earlier years. Many Thanks to all who have lent priceless photographs, time, and support to this time?consuming project. Thanks also to the Roscoe Lions Club for underwriting the publishing expense and turning a dream into reality. Special Thanks to Frank Bubser and his large collection of glass negatives and sense of history, to Florence Shugars; and Lenore Warner for their photo albums and recollections, and to Norman Cummings and Virginia McDonald Gummow for help in developing prints. A debt of gratitude is also owed to my grandfather, Frank Sturtevant, his sister, Hattie S. Wiggins, Mary Fyler, and other unknown photographers who recorded the scenes and people of long ago with cumbersome cameras and limited equipment."

I have a copy of this publication and will try to answer questions about the indexed items.
