Look up request - Joseph Roscoe

[taonga1]

Hi Jane  - thank you for your message to me - I have hunted and can't find any way to reply to it privately!  I thought I was reasonably techno-savvy, but my internet guru husband can't find a way to message you either.

Maybe we need to club together and order a birth certificate!

Thank you!  I thought I was going bonkers.  The very helpful Mr Mancurian did point me in the right direction, and the right link appeared for me this time.

If only the rest of my Roscoe information would appear magically like that.

Hello I know the original post was some time ago but are you aware that there is a Roscoe's Farm in Bispham Green? Please let me know if you would like any details.

Many thanks.  I did know that there was a Roscoe’s farm but if you have any further details I would love to have them.  Jane

Hi
The current farm buildings date from 1703. They were originally farmed by the Roscows but there were no Roscows here by 1841.
I have seen various sale documents etc. I know the farm was sold in 1863 to the Blackburn family (members of which were tenant farmers here at that point) and sold onto the Monk family inn1828.
I don't know if you are local but I can send photos if of use.

I would love to see photos.  I’m not local but live in Oxfordshire.  Joseph Roscoe’s sister married someone called Monk, though I think they separated at some point before Mr Monk committed suicide.  My email is  Best wishes Jane

Hi Milster 96,

I am also interested in Joseph Roscoe and Roscoe's Farm and I too would love to see the photos if possible. Unfortunately I am even further away than Jane, being in Orkney. My email address is (*) Moderator Comment: e-mail removed in accordance with RootsChat policy,
