Rockwood is the easterm area of Chesapeake. The Rockwood Baptist Church is at the city limit sign. The 1887 Lake Publishing co atlas of Lawrence Co even has an insert for Rockwood, showing it as the area east of Symmes Creek. This is all in Union Township. The Cox orchards in Windsor Twp, were on Greasy ridge (County Rd 2), near Pomaria Baptist church. In a message dated 1/31/2010 11:05:50 P.M.

A search of the 1920 census and there is indeed a man W [illegible] T Cox age 53 married to Maude. He's listed of all things, Fruit farmer. <grin> So anyway, the Rome Beauty that we associate with Capt. Gillett is a yellow apple, while the Red Rome, which we now can associate with Mr. Cox, is a deep red. If this is the same W.T. Cox (and I find it hard to believe it's not) he lived in Windsor Township according to the census. So it should have been the Red Windsor. <grin> Can anyone confirm that the old town of Rockwood as in Windsor Twp? Well, that's your history lesson for today <grin> Yeah, 19th century apples are one of my favorite topics, though admittedly I never looked into the Red Rome all that much. It's later than the period that I specialize in.
