    History

    [edit]

    Rockwood was initially known as Shaff's Bridge and then Mineral Point.[4] Philip Wolfersberger built a house in what is now Rockwood in 1856, and he laid out the town in 1857 with Martin Meyers serving as the primary surveyor.[4] John Poister built a hotel in 1860.[4] 1868 saw the development of a post office, Henry Werner built a tannery in 1869, and a railroad depot was built in 1871.[4] J.D.

    Miller and E.D. Miller opened a mercantile, Miller & Bro., and in 1874 they expanded the business to take in Samuel A. Haines as a partner, forming Miller Bros. & Haines.[5]
