Orignally thought Rosebud was in Poweshiek Co., but I've learned that Poweshiek was once part of Mahaska Co., or vice versa. Does anyone know of Rosebud? Have searched for extinct towns in Iowa, Rosebud is not listed. Perhaps it was not a town, but a homestead, a post office? George William Morrison b. Feb 14, 1878, supposedly born "in Rosebud." He is a son of James Morrison and Emma Roland. They met and married in Powesheik Co., then moved to Illinois for a while, she was born in Illinois. They lived in Deep River and perhaps Montezuma. Others in the family would be Cloyd, Archie, Ellsworth, Frederick, probably siblings of George. Cloyd was born in Illinois, the others, we're unsure, probably Iowa. Anyone in Mahaska County know of this place, or perhaps this family group? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Sandy Morrison another address is: SANDRAMORRISON_93@MSN.COM
