From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

ROSE Township, organized May 11, 1858, was named in honor of Isaac Rose, who settled here in the summer of 1843, purchasing 170 acres of land, which included the site of Macalester College. He was born in New Jersey in 1802; was a land agent, selecting farms for immigrants; died at Ottawa, Minn., in February 1871.

ROSEVILLE, a city in Rose Township, was incorporated as a village on April 19, 1948, and separated from the township. One of its first settlers was Isaac Rose, who was the postmaster, 1857-61, its years of operation, and for whom the township and village were named. The townsite changed over the years from a rural community to a suburb of St. Paul.
