    In the 1890's, in order ot obtain postal service, families in the area along the 11 concession between lots 14 and 20 in South Norwich Twp. had to gather together to decide a name for their community. The name 'Rosehill' was chosen and applied for but another village by that name was already in existence. The name 'Rosanna' was offered and in 1896 a Post Office opened and mail arrived from Courtland twice weekly. In 1912 rural mail delivery started from nearby Tillsonburg.

    School debuted in Rosanna in 1865 and a new building was constructed in 1895 just east of the cemetery. In 1908. the Canadian Order of Foresters remodeled and took over the new school.

    The first church was erected in 1884 by the Evangelical Methodists. Soon after the local people gathered together to build a brick faced structure they called the Calvary Church.
