Roscoe in Coshocton County, Ohio — The American Midwest (Great Lakes)
Daniel Boyd House - c.1825
This house was built c.1825 by Daniel Boyd, a weaver. Some time in the 1830s, and in the face of financial difficulties, Daniel and Jane Boyd deeded the house to the Methodist Episcopal Church to be the church parsonage.
Originally located in Caldersburgh, early Roscoe, this building was moved to its present location in 1989. It is the oldest building in Roscoe and the only one to have been relocated.
