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.
