Bits and Pieces of Rusco History


Welcome to my bits and pieces of my Rusco family history. From what I have found out so far: The name Roscou and the name Roscoue have been previous ways that the last name has been spelt and to this day some people still spell them this way. What I have starts with John Sr. abt 1525 in France then John Jr. abt 1550 in England My info shows that our line came from England to America in abt.1635 The first to come to America were William abt.1594 in England and his son William abt.1623 in England. This is where the name was changed to Rusco in our line. William had a son John who was born in 1672 in Conneticut. Then John's son James was born abt. 1711 in Conneticut. Then came Stephen abt.1742 in Conneticut and then Rueben Sr. abt 1770 followed by Rueben S. abt 1816 in New York Then James W abt. 1851 in Wisconsin. Herbert abt. 1876 in North Dakota and Harvey Herbert 1921 in Fairfield North Dakota. The family moved to Minnesota and live in Cass Lake. Most of our immediate family members today are located through out Mn and the bordering states. Alot of the family members seem to have a nack for woodwork and writing poetry.
