History


Roscoe was originally called Zion. A post office called Zions was established in 1865. The Great Northern Railroad's line through the town was important to its early development, and in 1914 the name was changed to Roscoe after a railroad executive. The surrounding Zion Township still bears the original name of the town. The city has also grown eastward by annexing part of Munson Township.
A church on the site of today's St. Agnes Church, still the dominant feature of the Roscoe skyline, was dedicated on October 18, 1898 to serve the area's predominantly German-Catholic population. Roscoe formerly hosted a stop on the Great Northern Railway, but the tracks were abandoned in 1988 and subsequently razed.
The post office closed in 1995.
