Welcome to Rockville ...

We have done a cursory search and if it was a community, we haven't been able to find any evidence that it still exists..

We've added Rockville to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. If you can help us with Rockville, please Contact Us.

While we don't have a date for the founding of Rockville, you might get a feel for it by knowing that during our research the earliest mention that we found (so far) was on a map dated 1897.

Footnotes ...

<1>	If we encounter the name of what might be a community, our methodology is to add that name to our Gazetteer. For example, we might find a sentence like "He went north past Rockville and then turned west". While Rockville could be some kind of landmark, we think that it's more likely to be a community. We've added Rockville as a placeholder with the hope that we'll be able to add more information in the future. Just as a reminder: Our definition of a community is rather broad and includes those places (or areas) where several families lived and had a name which identified that place. For example, you might hear somebody say that they are going over to Miller Creek to see Pete ... Miller Creek is just a gas station and a couple of homes at the crossroads. While it might not be on the map, everybody in the area knows it by that name. Places of interest include buildings at a crossroad, several families clustered in a hollow or maybe the location of a way station. It also includes places like mines, lumber camps, ferry crossings, etc. The community might still exist, is now gone or only existed for just a short period of time. Also keep in mind that Rockville could have been on the original document by mistake, misspelled, the original/alternate name of a community that we've listed elsewhere or was placed in the wrong . Sometimes a post office or train station would have a different name than the community where it's located, so two names might be referring to the same community - we're working to straighten it all out.
