Hi Andy, You are welcome (in advance) (VBG) "High Prairie (Cook). Later Roseland: now a part of Chicago." on page 391 of "Illinois Place Names". "Roseland (Cook)). PO established. (changed from Calumet) 2/16/1874; discontinued 6/6/1894; now part of Chicago. Also known as Calumet, High prairie, Holland, Holland Settlement, Hope Kennsington." page 493. Do you have a map of the south side of Chicago? My new scanner is just three days old and I have a Rand McNally Atlas and a 1976 Chicago city map. What time frame are you researching in Roseland? If you have questions subscribe to and ask the Cook County list. It is very active. My wife grew up in Chicago in the southwest area but northwest of Roseland region.
